It plays a central role in Ethiopia's economy and as the country's leading export is an important source of foreign exchange. The coffee bean export business reserved for Ethiopia citizens. Out of the total number of coffee exporting companies, 93 percent are private companies, 5% are coffee growing farmers' cooperatives, and 2 % are governmental enterprise. The extent to which cooperatives and private, including previous Ethiopian Grain Trade Enterprise (EGTE) now named Ethiopia Trading Business Corporation ( ) and state farms, play a role in coffee exports from Ethiopia. Currently coffee generates less than 35 percent of the total export earnings. For the last several years its relative predominance in the export sector is decreasing because of increased contribution of other agricultural products like horticulture and floriculture. Consequently, only a little over 26% percent of the total export earnings is contributed by coffee during the year of 2011 (FDRE, 2011). This is the lowest share earned from export of coffee in the history of economy.
