Addis Ababa Bottle and Glass Share Company (“Addis Glass” or “the company”) is an existing manufacturer of container glass products for the Ethiopian market. The company was established in 1972, approximately 8.5km from Addis Ababa city center (Around Asko Area) along the road to Ambo, in Kolfe Keraniyo subcity, Woreda 13. It produces glass container packaging for beer, soft drinks, liquor, wine, cosmetics, mineral water, and food markets.Glass bottle manufacturing requires silica sand, limestone, dolomite, soda ash and other raw materials. The company owns two quarries in Debra and Harar for sourcing silica sand and dolomite respectively. Limestone is sourced from local cement companies, soda ash, both locally and imported from Magadi Soda in Kenya and cullet from the customers. The production process generally does not generate much waste.
