The half fiscal year of 2014/15 saw a success in terms of achievement in the export of coffee although it leaves uncertainty in the future of the coffee market.

The country’s plan for the first six months of the budget year was to export 73,593.5tn of coffee and gain an income of 269 million dollars. The actual export was 73,227.9tn, from which a higher than targeted revenue of 307.5 million dollars was gained.

“The gain from the export exceeds the plan because the international coffee price was better in the export period,” said Getahun Bikora, coffee marketing director at the Ministry of Trade (MoT).

This year’s plan of the Ministry is to export 235,950tn of coffee to gain 862.5 million dollars.

“The new coffee is yet to come to the market and it will increase the volume of the coffee that we export,” said Getahun.

At the beginning of the fiscal year 2014/15, Ethiopia, which supplies less than five percent of the world’s coffee, was said to benefit from the plague on the Brazilian coffee. The production of Brazil’s coffee was said to decrease significantly although it only decreased by five percent.

“We did not benefit from the coffee market as we expected when we heard of the Brazilian coffee issue although we have achieved our target,” Getahun said.

The performance of the coffee that is exported according to the plan is 99.5pc and the income performance shows a performance of 114.3pc. The seventh month export of coffee was planned to be 90,483tn while 79,365tn of coffee was exported, showing 88pc performance. The gain from the seventh month export was planned to be 330 million dollars while the amount gained was 339.4 million dollars, which is 102pc of the planned performance.

In the three weeks of the eighth month, 9,120tn was exported, bringing in an income of 42 million dollars.

Ethiopia expects to produce 461,620tns of coffee this year, of which it expects to export 239,950tns for 862.55 million dollars, showing an increase of 23.6pc in volume and 20pc in revenue from the previous year.

In 2013/14, the country planned to export up to 277,500tn but has done only 190,876tn with the planned revenue falling down from the planned one billion dollars to only 717 million dollars.

The international price of coffee has been declining since mid January. The international market price of coffee on February 3, 2015, per pound was 163.6 American cents and it dramatically fell down to 137.6 American cents per pound on March 3, 2015.

“The major thing we should do is to make the price of the Ethiopian Commodity Exchange (ECX) line up with that of the international market and craft a subsidizing policy to increase the amount of export,” said Getahun.

The international coffee price is yet expected to fall well up to 120 American cents a pound, which the Ministry sees as a future challenge in the coffee market as the international coffee market does not depend on fundamental issues of demand and supply but rather on the technical issues that govern the market. These issues could be political or such.

Ethiopia stands fifth in the world with a production of 379,500tn a year, having the world’s supply share of 4.5pc in 2012/13. Out of this, the amount Ethiopia exported was 3,134 bags, which amounts to 47.5pc (180,262tn) of the total production.

The other top producers of the world are Brazil with 34.46pc share of the total coffee with three million tones of production. Next comes Indonesia with 8.75pc share having 0.76 million tonnes, followed by Vietnam and Columbia having the world’s share of 7.99 and 7.17pc with 0.69 million tonnes and 0.62 million ton as the International Coffee Organization (ICO) data indicates.

The Ethiopian coffee lacks competitive advantage in the market as it has many constraints in the marketing and producing process as experts in the sector state. Lack of traceability, quality of production and its being challenged by illegal trade are said to affect the country’s benefit from the sector.

Coffee… That amazing drink we have been enjoying for centuries! It gives us special moments while playing significant roles in daily lives of many. But have we ever asked ourselves where the coffee that we daily consume actually comes from and the journey it takes to reach our cup?
Tukia coffee is also set up as an initiative to raise awareness about coffee among people.  Beside its taste and aroma, the freshness of coffee, knowing its origin and the path that one needs to take, from being cultivated to our cup, also matters!
The idea of Tukia coffee is based on a social concept trying to tackle the long coffee chain and its unfair global margin distribution. Raising awareness about ethically traded coffee is one of our missions. Your cup of coffee can make a global change!
Ethiopian population is estimated to be 90+ million from which coffee sustains the livelihood of 15 million people. Coffee is vital to the culture and socioeconomic life of the people. The Ethiopian economy is highly dependent on coffee as it contributes more than 25% of the country’s foreign exchange earnings. The best quality green coffee bean from Ethiopia is usually exported on a bestselling day for not more than 6 dollars per 1 kilo( 2.2 pounds). 1 kilo of coffee can produce as much as 90+ cups. This amount is distributed between all parties that are involved in the coffee industry; starting from farmers who grow coffee, to processors that wash and remove the skin of the coffee cherry, to transporters that bring the coffee from Ethiopian coffee growing regions to the capital of Addis Ababa, and exporters who pack and export coffee in containers from Djibouti Port to many destinations all over the world. Our research suggests that once the green coffee bean reaches its destination and finally to roasters, the coffee is sold in a range between 21 – 45 US dollars depending on the market region. We believe this distribution is unfair for the country that produces the coffee, thus we are working toward a goal where a fair distribution to all involved; all over the world can be achieved.
Tukia coffee is not only grown and cultivated in coffee’s birth place, but also roasted and packed in Ethiopia. While drinking Tukia coffee, you can enjoy the authentic taste of coffee and be part of the African story that promotes products that are fully made in Africa.

About Roasting
The freshness of coffee is one of the most important things that contribute to an excellent cup of coffee. There are many factors that contribute to coffee quality. One of them is roasting, which is a key to the final taste of coffee. Roasting of green coffee beans must be done properly since it is a crucial factor that affects the final outcome of the coffee flavor and aroma.
By roasting in small batches, we ensure high quality products. We do not store the roasted coffee; we only produce custom coffee tailored exactly as per your preference. The roasting time and the temperature of the process determine the coffee flavor, acidity, aroma and color. You can choose your Tukia coffee to be roasted as the following:

• Blonde Roast
• Medium Roast
• Medium Dark Roast
• Dark Roast

Tukia coffee is packed right after it is roasted in an environment friendly stand up pouch with a re-sealable zipper and one way degassing valve. The valve helps to omit the CO2 from the coffee so that it will not burn itself.
We deliver fresh roasted coffee directly to your destination from Addis Ababa; making the long coffee path shorter and ensuring its freshness till your door step.
Feel free to contact us for further detail and we will be pleased to assist you.

Model registration procedures are sent from the Ministry’s Diaspora Directorate to all the regions, which the regions adopt based on their region’s area, land lease price, standards of urban areas where construction will take palce and construction cost, explained Fiesel. Almost all regional states have completed their directives, except Harari, Benishangul Gumuz and Afar, said Fiesel.
In Addis Abeba only, apartment houses are planned to be built, according to Addis Abeba’s Diaspora Housing Development Directive. The apartments can be a G+4 or above but if the construction is taking place in the central zone of the city only a G+12 and above apartment building are allowed, according to Tesfa Bisrat, head of Diaspora Coordinating Desk with the rank of assistant advisor to the mayor. The apartments will be built in group that contains either 12 or 24 members and 50sqm of land is allocated for each member for the house, stated Tesfa.
The Tigray regional state completed and approved its diaspora housing directives in June 2014, according to Atakilt Gebreyhiwot, Tigray Urban Development, Trade and Industry Bureau director. We have outlined an initial directive on how to proceed with the housing program but the directives can be improvised based on the interests of the house buyers as well as important guidelines we would like to include in the directive, stated Atakilt.
Tigray has planned to include apartment housing with two floors or above in all parts of the region, he said. The houses can be two, three or four bedrooms houses, according to the directives. The two-bedrooms house will rest on 60sqm-80sqm with the price tag of 424,390Br. The three-bedroom house will cost 573,500Br and rests on 80sqm-100sqm. The four-bedroom house will rest on 100sqm-136sqm with the cost of 779,960Br.
Another region, which has already completed its diaspora housing directives, is the Oromia region. The region has included in its directives an apartment as well as town housing program, according to Bayissa Hirko, Oromia Industry and Urban Development Bureau, senior expert of housing transfer and administration. The apartment will be G+4 or above, having two, three or four bedroom houses, he added. The two-bedroom house will rest on 80sqm land and costs 400,000Br, where as the three-bedroom will cost 550,000Br and rests on 100sqm land; the four bedrooms will be built on 110sqm land and will cost 700,000Br. The town houses will have a G+1 and G+2 format and will be built on 120sqm and will cost 500,000Br and 800,000Br respectively, explained Bayissa.
The Southern Nations, Nationalities & Peoples’ Region (SNNPR) has categorized its urban areas in different levels, with Hawassa as a leading city. The rest are categorized as high-level, mid-level, town and developing towns, according to Aschalew Kassaye, SNNPR Industry and Urban Development Bureau, housing development and administration. The distinction was made based on population number, area, economy and service provision of the towns, explained Aschalew.
An apartment and a town house are to be built in the region, according to the directive. Only G+4 and above apartment houses will be built in Hawassa with two, three or four bedrooms which rest on 50sqm, 65sqm, and 80sqm respectively while a G+3 apartment will be built in high-level towns. The apartment houses can be two, three and four bedrooms, which will rest on 55sqm, 70sqm and 85sqm of land, respectively. Only G+1 and G+2 town houses can be built in mid-level towns that have two, three or four bedrooms and built on 60sqm, 75sqm, and 90sqm, accordingly. For the developing towns only the construction of a single storey town house construction is allowed, stated Aschalew. It will have two, three or four bedrooms, which rest on 65sqm, 80sqm and 90sqm of land respectively. But cost decisions will not be finalized until January 9, 2015, he added.
Dire Dewa has only planned the construction of G+2 and G+3 town houses, according to Sebsibe Mekonnen, the city’s diaspora affairs coordinator. The houses will have two, three and four bedrooms, which rest on 128sqm, 160sqmand 200sqm, respectively, with 582,400Br, 728,000Br, and 910,000Br cost.
The payment will be made in hard currency, 50pc upon registration and the rest when construction begins, according to Feisel. An Ethiopian diaspora who has never owned a house by his name or through his relatives can register for the program. It is possible to register collectively forming 12-24 members, stated Fiesel. The home buyers can come up with their own design but as for hiring a contractor of their choice, some regions directive compel them to hire only government contractor.
The directives are a work-in-progress, which could be modified based on the discussion, stated Sebsibe. We are trying to come up with standardized and similar directives and most of the directives reflect this, stated Fiesel. The directives, which are collected from the regional diaspora offices, have been distributed to Ethiopian embassies. When all the regions complete the preparation, then we can proceed to the registration phase as we are now completing the work plan schedule, added Feisel.

UPDATE [APRIL 28, 2015] - 40/60 Condominium - New Information about total number of people who have registered, total number of people who paid the full amount has been released. Check out the link below.

Like many small business owners, you may believe your business cannot benefit from having a website or that a website is not within your budget. Or maybe you think because you don’t use a computer, neither do your potential customers. These are misconceptions. These 8 reasons show why your company NEEDS a professional website, no matter what size your business.

1. YOUR SMALL BUSINESS WILL GAIN CREDIBILITY

Today, more and more consumers use the internet to search for the products or services they need. Your small business will gain credibility by having a website. Without one, potential customers will go to your competitors that do. If you already have a website but it is "home-made", having it professionally redesigned will provide your business with a professional image which will inspire even greater confidence. For home-based businesses, this is particularly beneficial since you do not have a store front to promote your products or services.

2. A WEBSITE SAVES YOU MONEY

As a small business owner you probably think you can't afford a professional website, but you can't afford NOT to. Although the cost of designing a website varies, once it's up and running, a website for a small business generally costs under 100 birr a month and, in some cases, as little as 70 birr. Compared with the cost of a newspaper ad, when you consider the potential market you can reach with a website, it is a very cost effective way to promote your business.

3. IT WILL ENABLE YOU TO KEEP YOUR CUSTOMERS INFORMED

Think of your website as being your online brochure or catalog. It is much easier and quicker to update information about your products and services on your website than in print material, making it an effective way of letting your customers know about the arrival of new products, upcoming events, special promotions, or any new services you now offer. Unlike print ads which quickly become outdated, your website can provide current information and news.

 4. IT IS ALWAYS ACCESSIBLE

A website is available to both your regular and potential customers 24/7/365 providing them with the convenience of reviewing your products and services when your store or office is closed. With today’s busy lifestyles, this is a great selling point when making a purchase decision.

 5. A WEBSITE MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO TARGET A WIDER MARKET

Whether you provide products or services, your website will provide an alternative location to sell them. As a retailer, a website (eCommerce) is a great place to sell your products to a wider market; even services can be made available globally. Don't think you'll be able to sell your products or services online? Don't forget, even cars and houses sell online!

 6. IT PROVIDES A MEDIUM ON WHICH TO SHOWCASE YOUR WORK

No matter what type of business you’re in, a website is a great place to showcase your work. By including a portfolio or image gallery, as well as testimonials about your work, you can demonstrate what makes your business unique.

 7. A WEBSITE SAVES YOU TIME

Providing information to your customers takes time, whether it’s on the phone, face-to-face, in a brochure, or in emails. With an online catalog you can provide lots of information about your products and services. Once your website is up and running, it is available to your customers indefinitely, saving you time. And what is time? Time is money!

 8. IT IMPROVES CUSTOMER SERVICE

Maybe you sell environmentally friendly products and would like to share tips on how to recycle, or perhaps you’re an accountant and want to give your clients advice on how to simplify their bookkeeping practices. By including a FAQ page, adding articles or uploading newsletters to answer all your customers' questions you can keep them up-to-date. What better way to provide them with value added service than by sharing information on your website.

What are static and dynamic websites?

There are many static websites on the Internet, you won’t be able to tell immediately if it is static, but the chances are, if the site looks basic and is for a smaller company, and simply delivers information without any bells and whistles, it could be a static website. Static websites can only really be updated by someone with a knowledge of website development. Static websites are the cheapest to develop and host, and many smaller companies still use these to get a web presence.

Advantages of static websites

    Quick to develop
    Cheap to develop
    Cheap to host

Disadvantages of static websites

    Requires web development expertise to update site
    Site not as useful for the user
    Content can get stagnant

Dynamic sites on the other hand can be more expensive to develop initially, but the advantages are numerous. At a basic level, a dynamic website can give the website owner the ability to simply update and add new content to the site. For example, news and events could be posted to the site through a simple browser interface. Dynamic features of a site are only limited by imagination. Some examples of dynamic website features could be: content management system, e-commerce system, bulletin / discussion boards, intranet or extranet facilities, ability for clients or users to upload documents, ability for administrators or users to create content or add information to a site (dynamic publishing).

Advantages of dynamic websites

    Much more functional website
    Much easier to update
    New content brings people back to the site and helps in the search engines
    Can work as a system to allow staff or users to collaborate

Disadvantages of dynamic websites

    Slower / more expensive to develop
    Hosting costs a little more

Summary

Many sites from the last decade are static, but more and more people are realizing the advantages of having a dynamic website. Dynamic websites can make the most of your site and either use it as a tool or create a professional, interesting experience for your visitors.

Moved by a larger demand for the 40/60 housing scheme, the Ministry of Urban Development, Housing & Construction (MUDHC) has prepared three new designs of up to 24 storeys.

Apart from the 12 storey buildings under construction at different sites across the city, the rest of the buildings to be constructed under the new scheme will be 16, 18 and 20 storey with two basements, and 24 storey buildings with three basements, according to Desta Shewamola, head of Houses & Building Design Preparation & Implementation Department.

The Ministry has commissioned the preparation of the designs to ETG Designers & Consultants Plc, for the design of the 16, 20 and 24 storey buildings while the Addis Abeba Savings & Houses Development Enterprise (AASHDE) has prepared the design for the 18 storey buildings. ETG is a category 1 consulting and designing firm established in 1995.

The decision to increase the height of the buildings to be constructed under the scheme is made in order to accommodate the larger demand of houses through an efficient use of the lands apportioned for the purpose, according to Desta.

In addition to the increased number of houses to be included in the newly designed buildings, the proportion of the types of houses to be included in each of these buildings will also vary from those currently under construction.

The Ministry has availed three types of houses under the 40/60 scheme based on the number of bedrooms they accommodate. Accordingly, the 12 storey buildings under construction encompasses one bedroom, two bedroom and three bedroom houses, the number of which are equally proportional in each of the buildings.

Nonetheless, the design of the 12 storey buildings, which was made before registration of the house was made, that has incorporated all the three types of the houses in proportional number is found to be incompatible with the demand manifested for each of the three types of houses during the registration under the scheme.

Out of the total number of 160,000 residents registered under the scheme, only four percent is registered for one bed room houses and 46pc for the two bed room while half have registered for the three bed room houses.

Currently, there are 12,279 houses  that are being constructed at nine sites across the city under the scheme. Out of this the construction progress of those at Lideta District, Senga Tera area has reached 61pc while those that started in the last fiscal year, at other sites have reached 12pc completion, according to the final draft of the annual performance of the Ministry.

City residents who are registered under this scheme must save 40pc of the value of the houses within five years and the government arranges a loan for the remaining 60pc from the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE) by mortgaging the house to be transferred to the user upon completion.

One, two and three bedroom houses under the 40/60 scheme cost  162,000 Br, 250,000 Br and 386,000 Br, respectively. The respective monthly savings are 1,033 Br, 1,575 Br and 2,453 Br for five years.

The construction cost of the buildings for the house seekers under the scheme is, however, adjustable based on the market price of the construction materials. Besides, the cost of the newly designed buildings may differ from the current amount, according to Desta.

“The price of the houses may increase,” says Desta. “The government, however, may subsidise it.”

Every building to be built based on the new designs will have an electric power generator that will serve the houses in case of a power shortage, according to Desta.

In addition to those in progress under the 40/60 scheme, the government is also constructing 124, 220 houses under the 20/80 low cost housing scheme. Out of this, the construction of 71, 127, which were begun in 2010/11 and 2011/12, has reached 91.2pc while that of 13, 014 houses has reached 13.28pc; those whose construction started in 2013/14 fiscal year are at basement stage. The total number of house seekers that are registered under this scheme is 780,000 residents of the city, according to data from the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE).

The third category of the low cost housing types underway by the government is the 10/90 scheme, for which around 20,000 house seekers are registered, according to data from the CBE.  The construction progress of the 24,288 houses for the registrants under this scheme have reached 62.17pc, according to data from the MoUDHC.

The government has now used 6.3 billion Br which has been raised through the sale of bonds for the construction of these houses, the Ministry says that so far 1.25 billion Br has been spent on the 40/60 houses currently under construction.

It seems like there is a new cafe on every corner of Addis Ababa or other major city in Ethiopia. But finding the best cafes in Ethiopia is harder than it sounds. We all have different taste and what might seem like the best cafe for us, might just be the worst one for our friends. But most of us can find a common and similar value among the best cafes in Ethiopia. Neatness, hospitality, location and price (not for all) might be decisive factors on which ones we consider to be the best cafes in Ethiopia. As the capital of Ethiopia, Addis Ababa has the widest selection of Cafés in Ethiopia. Cafes and Restaurants in Addis Ababa are generally criticized for being too pricey compared to other major cities. But that shouldn’t come as a surprise considering life in Addis Ababa is generally more expensive than other major Ethiopian cities.
