Ethiopia is undergoing an infrastructure boom that signals a profound shift in its national economy. At the heart of this transformation is a $10 billion investment to expand Ethiopian Airlines, equipping a new facility to manage over 100 million passengers per year.

The current wave of development, however, extends well beyond the airport. Significant and transformative projects are underway in gas, housing, and critical fertilizer production. By producing fertilizer domestically, the nation expects to double agricultural productivity—a major, immediate economic breakthrough. The cumulative effect of these massive, parallel projects is expected to bring about a significant and lasting change across Ethiopia’s economic landscape.
