The market for fuel wood in chips and particles in Ethiopia demonstrated remarkable stability in domestic production, which remained unchanged at 14 625 t annually from 2018 through 2023. Total market volume closely tracked production levels, with only minor deviations caused by fluctuations in import activity.

In 2019, imports spiked to 143 t, lifting the total market volume to 14 768 t.
