Ethiopian Shipping and Logistics Services Enterprise (ESLSE) was able to transport 7.2 million tons of dry cargo during the 2021/2022 fiscal year. The Enterprise said it managed to get the result despite several challenges. The Enterprise’s goal for the concluded fiscal year was to transport 10 million tons of shipment.

International trade was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and the war between Russia and Ukraine during the concluded fiscal year. The Enterprise managed to achieve 92% of its plan for the year despite international trade problems.

ESLSE was created in 2011 as a result of a merger between three public enterprises named Ethiopian Shipping Lines Share Company, Ethiopian Maritime and Transit Enterprise, and Dry Port Enterprise.
