Ethiopia urged to diversify

KAMPALA-Trade between Uganda and Ethiopia can grow if both countries diversify products, the Ethiopian embassy’s consulate, Amdemichael Tekle, has advised. “Trade between the two countries is small because we almost produce similar products for export like coffee, hides and skins. This does not mean that we can’t trade at all,” he said.
