The Ethiopia Rennet Market is projected to witness mixed growth rate patterns during 2025 to 2029. Starting at 65.32% in 2025, the market peaks at 404.57% in 2026, and settles at 34.69% by 2029.

The rennet market in Ethiopia is tied to the growth of the local dairy industry. With a rising demand for cheese and other dairy products, the need for rennet is increasing. Government programs supporting livestock and dairy development, along with collaborations with international food technology providers, are expected to bolster the rennet market in Ethiopia.
The Ethiopia rennet market is driven by the rising demand for cheese and other dairy products in the countrys growing food and beverage industry. As urbanization increases and consumer preferences shift toward processed and value-added dairy products, the demand for rennet grows. Local dairy production expansion and investments in modern dairy processing facilities further support market growth. Additionally, the availability of microbial and plant-based rennet alternatives caters to diverse production needs.
The rennet market in Ethiopia is limited due to the countrys relatively small dairy industry, which restricts the demand for this enzyme. The lack of local production facilities for rennet means that it must be imported, which increases the cost and makes it less accessible to local dairy producers. Furthermore, traditional methods of dairy processing, which do not require rennet, are still widely used, making it difficult for newer technologies to gain traction. A lack of awareness about the advantages of using rennet, particularly in cheese production, further inhibits its adoption in the market. Regulatory challenges and the high costs of compliance add another layer of difficulty.
The rennet market in Ethiopia is influenced by the governments agricultural and food processing policies. Ethiopias growing dairy industry, supported by agricultural policies that aim to boost milk production and dairy product consumption, is driving demand for rennet, an enzyme used in cheese production. Government initiatives to improve food security and enhance the quality of local dairy products are creating a favorable environment for the rennet market. Policies also support local dairy farmers by promoting modern processing techniques, which further encourages the use of rennet in cheese manufacturing.
