Ethiopia’s manufacturing sector maintained a low but steady GDP contribution over three decades, peaking at 7.3% in 1997. Government efforts to boost industrialization and infrastructure development led to modest improvements, reaching 6.2% in 2017. However, recent years showed a decline to 4.2% by 2022, likely due to political instability and the COVID-19 pandemic's impacts on production and investment.
