Where will I buy groceries and do other shopping in Addis Ababa?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living in Addis Ababa about good local restaurants, they mentioned...

"Expats in Addis Ababa, often shop for groceries at supermarkets such as Shoa Shopping Center (https://www.shoashoppingcenter.com/), which offers a wide range of local and imported products. Another popular option is Bambi's Supermarket (https://www.facebook.com/BambisSupermarket/), known for its variety of international food items and household goods. For fresh produce, expats can visit local markets like the Merkato (https://www.lonelyplanet.com/ethiopia/addis-ababa/attractions/merkato/a/poi-sig/1425899/355289), one of the largest open-air markets in Africa, where they can find fruits, vegetables, spices, and other local products. For clothing and other shopping needs, expats can visit the Edna Mall (https://www.ednamall.co/), which houses various international and local brands, as well as a cinema and restaurants. The Friendship City Center (https://www.facebook.com/FriendshipCityCenter/) is another popular shopping destination, offering a range of shops, cafes, and entertainment options. In addition to these shopping centers and markets, expats can also find various specialty shops and boutiques throughout the city, catering to their specific needs and preferences," commented one expat who made the move to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
