The Ethio-Djibouti Railway Standard Gauge Share Company (EDR) has successfully obtained a Multimodal Transport Operation (MTO) license, marking its official entry into the competitive logistics sector.

The Ethiopian Maritime Authority (EMA), the regulatory body overseeing this sector, granted the license to EDR after a comprehensive evaluation process. This development aligns with the government’s strategy to broaden the MTO framework by including more participants, aiming to stimulate competition and promote growth in the logistics sector. The government had earlier announced plans to issue four additional MTO licenses alongside ESL, with EDR being the most recent recipient. The selection process, managed by EMA, extended over several years and included multiple local and international companies, all evaluated against strict...
