2. INTRODUDTION
The investor is planning to invest the establishment of new gas station industry of the current most
required energy supply of the country economic development. Fuels, especially petroleum products,
are currently the most widely used source of energy in the world. The same international trend is true
in Ethiopia as well. Currently, Regular gasoline, Gasoil, Kerosene, Heavy fuel oil (HFO), Light fuel
oil (LFO) and JTA-1 are imported by Ethiopian Petroleum Supplies Enterprise (EPSE).
The Heavy fuel oil (HFO) and Light fuel oil (LFO) is imported for industrial use and JTA-1 for
aviation purpose. Gasoil and gasoline are used in the transportation, construction, industries, power
generation, agriculture, house hold cooking and lighting in rural areas.
At present, Ethiopia spends 2.5 billion USD annually on imported petroleum products (The Reporter
2016), 20% of the country’s imports of goods is purely spent on fuel (Euromoney 2014).
The consumption of petroleum products such as petrol, diesel and kerosene and others has
been significantly growing with an increase of 10% Diesel accounts for 85%-87% of oil
consumption. In the country, the fuel demand is more of driven by demand of the transport sector.
Lewin (2003) states the importance of the sector in fulfilling most transportation needs, providing
power and serving as a foundation for petrochemical business underpins the survival of other
essential industries.
The service (Hotel and Tourism) industry plays important role in economic development of the
country by creating revenue tax from occupancy and other tourism activities in the hotel chain. The
tourism sector is growing fast and stands as the third foreign exchange earner, following coffee and
oilseeds.
The Travel and Tourism Industry contributes GDP 1426 (US$ million) or 9.2 % of the total GDP,
and create 7.2% of the job opportunity of the country in the year 2007. The study conducted by
World Bank forecasted the tourism and travel industry will grow at the rate of 4% from 2007-2017.
Ninety percent of the international standard hotels are located at Addis Ababa the capital city of
Ethiopia.
The study conducted by World Bank- Pro-Tourism Strategy of Ethiopia, Japan-Embassy Hotel
Industry Study, and SNNPR tourism strategy shows that un-availability of international standard
outside Addis Ababa along the tours circuit is one of the major problem for the development of
12
tourism industry of Ethiopia. Various studies also shows that the supply of bed rooms of Ethiopia is
least when compared to other African courtiers has highest income from tourism sector but with
lowest number of tourist attraction heritage and natural resources cites. The hotel industry and
tourism growth expected to be increased due to the following development observed at the senior
and potentials,
Availability of Cultural Lodge and Gust House Raw Materials: The principal raw material is
foods, Beverage, Snacks and bed room material products supply ensuring the distributed consistently
and timely to the consumers through an effective and efficient supply chain system. Providing of
leisure goods and service through effective and efficient way includes the concept of quality or
keeping the national and international standard of the country.
13
Market: The proposed service gas stations and Bete Gurage Culture Lodge and Gust House’s
Center operational activities, which involves selling petrol products to motorists, though, it also
includes the sale of convenience items through the convenience of oil and lubricants with smart
cafeteria and Culture Lodge and Gust House service. Smooth and reliable supply of products in the
country, all partners involved in the project supply chain need to follow integrated approaches and
always shares a big picture. The government support this vibrant economic growth needs to be
supported by a robust, safe and operationally sustainable service industry sector. This selling of
petrol and diesel products and hotel and tourism service high market demand supply gap, in the
country is an opportunities for this envisaged project.
The project is expected to contribute in the Ethiopian fuel demand supply gape to rural and urban
area demand supply gap of Hotel industry in the country. It is important for the country to contribute
partly through the employment opportunity for the non-job women’s and youths to generate their
income. The project will totally employ mortmain 50-80 casual labour for the establishment phase
and 123 skilled workers for technical and production staff in the project operation and
implementation phase respectively. This employment will generate salary & wage income of 1.8
million birr per annum at the project initial year and then become increased throughout the project
life.
The Federal as well as the Regional governments would also receive substantial amount of revenue
in the form of different taxes including profit tax.

3. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
3.1 STATUS OF HOTEL, LODGE, RESORT & TORISM SNNPR IN SNNPR
3.1.1 CURRENT HOTEL AND TOURISM INDUSTRY
Tourism is vital for the Ethiopia economy providing 9.2 % of GDP and 7.1 % of the total
employments in year 2007 according to World tourism organization report valued at around US$
1426 million. The long-term vision of the government is to make Ethiopia one of the top ten tourist
destinations in Africa by the year 2020, with an emphasis on maximizing the poverty-reducing
impacts of tourism.
The basis of Ethiopia’s tourism product is cultural, historical and natural sites. This demand of
tourism products of Ethiopia could be split into two distinct product identities, a) a northern historic
circuit and b) a southern ethnological and nature based circuit. These two products account for more
than 95% of tour packages sold to Ethiopia
16
as the Dorze and Konso people cultural practice are very well-known and visited by many
foreigners. Besides, NechSar and Mago National Parks are among the natural attraction found along
the destinations visited by the tourist together with the cultural practices of the communities.
In the recent years, the tourism sector in SNNPRS is encouraging and shows a promising
performance. The great promotion made for the Ethiopian millennium had stimulated many
Ethiopian Diasporas and foreigner to visit the country in 2008. Tourism earning in the region
increases by 46.6 % from 12,739995 Birr in 2007 to 23, 852410 Birr in 2008 (almost 50%
increment).
Bulk Distribution Companies (Oil Companies): These companies have been licensed by the MoT
as bulk distributors. They purchase oil from EPSE and distribute the product either through their
Retail Network or directly to commercial customers. At present, there are thirteen Oil Companies in
the country; namely Oil Libya, Total, National Oil Ethiopia (NOC), Yetebaberut Beherawi
Petroleum (YBP), Kobil, TAF, Nile Petroleum, Wadi Alsundus (WAS), Dallol, Olway, Gomeju,
Yeshi, and Getnet. All are local companies, except Libya, Total, Nile and WAS. As per the monthly
fuel uplift report compiled by EPSE Oil Libya, Total, National Oil Ethiopia (NOC), Yetebaberut
Beherawi Petroleum (YBP) and TAF uplift more than 85% of the countries consumption.
a) Provides a trade license for Oil Companies and dealers (fuel station operators).
b) Regulates and establishes the price of fuel in the country by preparing a price build up that shows
the price structure from purchasing price at Djibouti and Sudan up to the pumping price at the
station. The price build-up is used by all stakeholders involved in the marketing and distribution
process (including transport rate to be paid to Bulk Road Vehicles).
c) Calibrates Bulk Road Vehicles and dispensing pumps/meters installed at depots and stations.
The Ministry retains regulation of the entry of petroleum marketing firms in the downstream sector.
It requires the Oil Company to construct a depot that can store a minimum of 500,000 liters and
have a minimum of 6 filling stations before issuing a license to operate as oil distributor in
Ethiopia. Although, the requirement is not implemented strictly

5. THE PROJECT
5.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The owner is planned to invest on the corner of Cheha district along the Indibir town road side to
build a Gas station + Bete Gurage Cultural Lodge and Gust House center to provide service with
fuel retail convenience store and cafeteria and modern local and foreign tourism focus hotel service
at the intersection of Hosiana to Weliket road. The construction and operation of the project is in
specific location of Aomera Meda at Indibir town which will have an opportunities positive
impact on the regional economy, and surrounding communities. The proposed Gas station and
convenience + Bete Gurage Cultural Lodge and Gust House are situated at the entrance to the
INdibir town which enhances the woreda earning.
The project is in line with government interest and policy which focuses on fuel shopping to the
local and international car movement. Furthermore the construction of the new gas station service
also stimulates the economy through the induced effects of private energy consumption and tourism
moment by this proposed gas station service and convenience cafeteria. In this regard, construction
of the proposed gas station with convenience cafeteria service results in payments for labour services
that ultimately increase household income.
The project also develop Bete Gurage Cultural Lodge and Gust House to serve as a place

5.5 INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
5.5.1 OIL INDUSTRY
The oil industry is involved in a global supply-chain that includes ordering, transportation,
import/export facilitation, inventory visibility and control, depot administration, distribution
management, customer service and information technology. Realizing the synergies that exists in
these functions, many companies have extended the concept further upstream and downstream; the
supplier of suppliers and customer of customers.
In recent years, there have been concerns and many have argued that the oil and gas industry may
have entered an era of very scarce resources. However, in reality, the resources are not the cause of
supply constraints, rather putting these reserves into production and delivering the final products to
consumers.
The total number of international hotel, lodge and resort in Ethiopia is steadily increasing. As a
gateway to all international inbound, outbound and transit tourists/passengers, Addis Abeba has been
taking the lion’s share in the country’s tourist arrivals hosting an estimated 95-99% of the total
international tourist arrivals, they said. Being a popular conference venue is also helping the city
attract more visitors each year. Conference tourism has a great potential and is poised to gain greater
significance.
The overall growth and the continued progress in the service industry are forecast by the World
Travel & Tourism Council to be 4.8% per annum over the coming decade. Increasing the supply of
high quality, top end hotel accommodation through hotel construction is necessary for improved
competitiveness and the economic success of the sector,(said Matthew Weihs), According to Ebisa
26
C. Gobena and Andualem H. Gudeta of Awash International Bank, whose study “Hotel Sectors
Investment in Ethiopia” is published on Journal of Business Management in 2013, the hotel industry
in Ethiopia is signified by a substantial gap between demand and supply. This creates a big business
opportunity for those planning to enter into the sector. Considering its pivotal role in the economy,
particularly employment and food security, the industry’s long-term sustainability needs to be
prioritized. It is vital to improve the competitiveness of various segments of the value chain,
especially those aimed at lowering poverty. The hotel service industry in Ethiopia is signified by a
substantial gap between demand and supply. This creates a big business opportunity for those
planning to enter into the sector.
Through this Gas Station’s retail location (where most profits are realized), the cafeteria will provide
an expansive variety of food, beverage products. A vast majority of the revenues (not the profits)
will from the sale of gasoline, Kerosene and diesel petroleum products.. Below description is the
products offered by the owner of gas station.
5.6.1.1 FUEL SALES
This envisaged project expects to sell more than 200,000 litter of fuel per week, 800,000 liters per
month and 9,600,000 liters per year to motorists within the target market area. The oil and lubricant
is sales 96,000leters per year. This is by far the largest revenue center for the business, but it does
not generate an overwhelming amount of profit.
5.6.1.2 CAFETERIA SALE
The primary profit center of the Gas Station will be the retail sale of fresh food and packaged food
items, prepared food items, beverages (sodas, coffees, and bottled beverages), as well as other
merchandise such as small toiletries. The Company will offer an expansive number of these items
throughout the location. On each item sold, the business generates approximately 40% of operating
income
For the purpose of this study we are assuming that good foreign manufactured machinery costing
and equipment around birr 3.7 million will be able to give the desired quality of output. The cost
implications would depend on the capacity of the machine. All machinery are imported and foreign
manufactured state-of-art, eco-friendly. For the detailed information the total cost show below the

6. MARKET STUDAY AND APPLICATION
6.1 GAS STATION MARKETING STUDY
6.1.1 OVER-VIEW OF PETROLEUM PRODUCTS CONSUMPTION
According to Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, 2011 CRGE report, during the last five years
the oil demand has increased on the average by 10% per year. Diesel accounts for 85%-87% of oil
consumption. In the country, the fuel demand is more of driven by demand of the transport sector.
Lewin (2003) states the importance of the sector in fulfilling most transportation needs, providing
power and serving as a foundation for petrochemical business underpins the survival of other
essential industries.
The figure below shows the trend of importation of main fuel into the country by product type.
Diesel (Naphtha): As shown in Fig. 1 between the budget years of 2010 to 2015 the amount of
diesel volume was grown exponentially. The demand is growing due to boosting of infrastructure
projects in the country, such as road, rail & dam.
Gasoline (Benizen): It is the second fuel imported in Ethiopia, in between 2011 to 2015 the amount
of gasoline imported rapidly change (Fig. 1). The demand is growing due to increasing number of
automobile in the country and introduction of Bajaj into the country
Kerosene (Nech gas): Kerosene is the third fuel type the country imports in large quantities. Form
eleven consecutive budget years between 2003 and 2015 the import of kerosene was linearly
increase both in total volume imported (Fig. 1). The demand is growing due to increasing number of
EAL destination.

Figure 3: Trends in Petroleum products Consumption in Ethiopia
The demand for petroleum products is directly related with number of agro-industry Company and
urbanization growth is another factor for the growth in demand for petroleum products. However,
the most determining factor is growth of energy required service particularly in transport and rural
industry. The supply trends and its growth rate of petroleum products are presented in Figure1-
above. Total value of petroleum products import and supply from 1979 to 2015 year the total
imported supply is surged by 7% (Diesel (Naphtha), 6% (Gasoline (Benizen) and 6% (Kerosene):
During the last five years the oil consumption demand has increased on the average by 10% per year.
The country, fuel demand is more of driven by demand of the transport sector.
The government supports this sector in fulfilling most transportation needs, providing power and
serving as a foundation for petrochemical business underpins the survival of other essential
industries.
6.1.2.2 THE PRESENT DEMAND
According to the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, 2016 CRGE report, the country
consumes daily one million liters of benzene, 6.5 million liters of diesel and two million liters of jet
fuel. The annual kerosene consumption is 260,000 metric tons. The country’s annual fuel
33
consumption has been growing at a rate of ten percent per year. In 2017 the fuel consumption is
expected to surge to 3.4 million metric tons
6.1.2.3 DEMAND PROJECTIONS
The future demand for fuel very much depends on the growth of the industrial sector. However, in
view of the current trends is in economic growth and government’s plan to invest millions of dollars on
infrastructure, hydropower projects, mining and others a sector. The current gaps between demand and supply
in the petroleum sector are wide.
In accordance consultant analysis the Ethiopia fuel such as Diesel, Gasoline and Kerosene supply
average growth rate tends from 1997 to 2015 the consumption growth rate of kerosene (6%),
Gasoline (6%) and diesel (7%) are recorded. .
Accordingly, for this envisaged project demand forecast, based on the analysis indication of the
increase frequency order of 6% for present supply and 10% for projected demand and total average
annual fuel consumption of the country 1,603,629 metric tons (1997-2015) was taken initial
projected demand analysis for the next eleven year. For the detailed information the consultant
analysis is shown below the table-5.

6.1.5 COMPETITION
In order to gain an impression of the current market situation in terms of competitors and rivalry for
Gas Station, we decided to collect information about Gas Station and Cafeterias around Cheha-
Indibir town and its proximity. Around the project area Gas Station and Cafeterias were no detected
in the area around the project area. We decided to focus on four establishments which are most
comparable with our conception of the Gas station. Hence, there is any threaten competition at all
and in depth analysis should not part for the project.

more. They leave soon because there is nothing to make them stay longer even though they are
attracted by the natural beauty of the forest landscape.
The number of tourists who had visited the national heritage during the last eight expects 2004
indicates that there is sufficient demand for the services of international standard Cultural Lodge and
Gust House like many other tourist sites in other country, the market for this Cultural Lodge and
Gust House could be seasonal, but it can be profitable by working during the “tourist season”. The
Cultural Lodge and Gust House do not have to be very sophisticated and expensively built. All they
need is to be extremely clean and comfortable with cultural heritage and with reasonable prices and
efficient services. The food must be simple but carefully and cleanly prepared and cooked. These are
what “ferenjis” want in 3rdworld countries.
Besides serving tourists, the Cultural Lodge and Gust House at Cheha central town cultural Lodge
and gust house project could be a good recreational center for wedding and also for occasional
37
ceremonies like cultural day, graduation day, short conferences and trainings of Indibir twon and its
surrounding towns. On the other hand, as GDP and per capita income of the population increase
local people will try to spend their leisure time with their families in such a lodge, just like "ferenjis”
do.
In this respect it is of paramount importance to establish neat, clean and medium modern and
traditional Cultural Lodge and Gust House at the Indibir Cultural Lodge and Gust House project
that could accommodate foreign and local tourists so as to enjoy the beauty of the Cultural Lodge
and Gust House landscape during the every year.

parking area, water storage, electricity distribution and waste disposal.
Electricity: The site will be connected to the electricity main line of the Kenya power and
lighting company, which will be in all phases of the project. The necessary guidelines and
precautionary measures relating to the use of electricity shall be adhered to.
Water: Water from the Ethiopia Authority will be used during construction and operational
phases of the fuel station. More so there will be water storage tanks to increase water capacity
at the project site to the required amount. There are also local rivers which will provide water
as an alternative source.
Solid Waste/ sewerage: Solid waste collection center for the entire station will be located
strategically and covered on top and on the sides to protect against weather and scavengers as
per the Ministry of Health Standards. The waste will then be collected by NEMA licensed
private waste collectors for disposal at the approved dumping sites. Waste bins will be
provided for each section for temporarily holding of waste before delivery into the central solid
waste collection area. The proponent shall apply for an effluent discharge license from NEMA
tandem to the Water Quality Regulation, 197/2000. This report recommends the construction
of a three pit oil water interceptor tank, where all runoff water will be directed to before being
discharged into the main drainage system.
Security: A guard shall be located next to the main entrance for easy security operations
around the compound during construction and there will be guards at all times during the
operation phase of the Project.
Car Parking: The parking area will be provided with facilities such as lights, and signs for
easy entry and exit to allow free flow of traffic. The parking bay will be inclined to a degree
42
that does not allow stagnation of water and thus linked to storm water drainage system.

The heating and conditioning system in the Cultural lodge& Gust house would be installed with the
help of fan coils connected according to the scheme of the dual-purpose lithium bromide absorption
machine. Such scheme allows to operate the system both centrally (by temperature changing of the
dual-purpose lithium bromide absorption machine circuit), and locally (by changing the productivity
of fan coils).
Warm air heating equipment will be used for the heating system:
The modern air heating system, ventilation system and conditioning system in the Cultural lodge&
Gust house center are the jointly operated systems. All these systems are called the environmental
control system which is able to set not only the temperature parameters, but also the parameters of
humidity, air purity and air changes. The heating is achieved by air warming in the air intake system
up to the defined working temperature (18° – 24°), and also by temperature variation up to the set
level, for this purpose it is necessary to install fan coil units; these fan coil units operate in the air
heating mode by means of cooling circuit (water) at the local Individual Heating Plant (IHP) or
central heating system (standby).
It is necessary to equip the used air system with the fan coils both with cold (conditioning) and hot
(heating) water line, operating in summer and winter time. After being heated or cooled in the air
inlet units, the air is delivered through air ducts.
Landscaping: The un-built area will be landscaped after construction, using plant species available
locally. This will include establishment of flower pots to improve the visual quality of the site.

heating plant, transformer substation), in amenities (bathroom units, shower cubicles, smoking
areas).
The integrated system of central conditioning and ventilation consists of: story central inlet
ventilation units (air-intake unit), chilling machine, local fan coils, heat/cold supply air duct and
circuit.
There are no “dead-leg areas” in the ventilating and conditioning system, the system provides the
necessary air change coefficient and temperature maintenance both on shopping and total area.
46
Space finishing at the expense of tenant: This approach means the lease of gross leasable areas
with no “fine” finish, final finishing is executed at the expense of the tenant and according to his
project. The areas are leased according to the following standard of shell and core fit-out:
Cafeteria, Bar and Restaurant area: thermal contour, open plan of the Cultural lodge area, flat
waterproof floor with the heating system, naked walls, operating ceiling;
Utility Rooms/ Gust house: flat waterproof floor with the heating system, naked walls, operating
ceiling;
System Assembly (in the & Gust house area and in the utility rooms): ventilation system,
conditioning system for the hall area (main routes without end-use devices), heating system,
sewerage and water supply system, fire-fighting system, security and fire alarm;
Electricity: terminal only (without interconnection wiring).
This approach provides less fine finish expenses for the lessor, but includes the expenses incurred by
the tenant, dealing with the lease rent - less expense than when leasing with the fine finish.
Finishing anchor area is at the expense of the tenant, fine thread and total areas at the expense of the
lessor. In this case anchor areas are leased according to “shell & core” standard and “fine” finish is
executed by their independent projects subject to their technologies. For this period there is a
“leasing vacation”.
In the project calculation we accept the term that the anchor areas are transferred according to the
standard “shell & core”, subject to its technology concept by the approved decision of the lessor, and
the final finish is executed at the expense of the tenant.
The rest areas are finished according to the common interior design developed for the shopping
center. In the case when franchise raises special demands to the design they pay for the finishing
works at their expenses. The signing contracts with the anchor tenants at an early stage of designing
allowed make the project oriented to the technologies of concrete tenants.

9. FINANCIAL STUDY
9.1 INTRODUCTION
The financial analysis is based on the market demand analysis and the product development concepts.
The analysis took a conservative or at best a middle-road approach to forecasting occupancies, costumers
statistics, revenues and expenses. The analysis assumed that there was private sector participation in the
venture. Private sector support notwithstanding, the analysis assumed that the company would take some
years to discover and gain market share. However if a management company with an existing pipeline of
clients was to invest in the venture, then it is likely that results in the early years will be much more
positive. It should be noted that this analysis can only be indicative at this stage, as the envisaged private
sector management company should be given some flexibility in configuring the business venture,
specifically being able to decide on elements such as visitor facilities, pricing, exclusivity and service
quality
9.4 IMPLEMENTATION
The investor has already commenced the design and study activates of the project and expects to
conclude sooner. Following the investment the acquisition of land the project, necessary technical skills
and founding will be mobilized to finalize the project phase within 6 months.
53
Certain variable and direct fixed costs have been attributed to the relevant profit centers or
departments.
Fixes operational costs and administrative costs have been estimated based on unit project
business averages. Some are estimated as a percentage of turnovers.
All income and expense projections calculation at today’s rates.
The maximum annual capacity of the resort is estimated at 18,000 visitors per annum. This
was calculated as 50 visitors per day on weekends and holidays base.
On this basis day visitor occupancy was estimated to start at 15% in year 1 and increase to
40% by year 7.
Performance of 130 beds in 3 class was analyzed years 3 to 10.
Based on these bed numbers occupancy was estimated to start at 80% in year 1, year 2 90%
and increase to 100% by year 4 to 10.
Bar and restaurant retail and bed room sales was calculated at local Food 200/ meal / person,
Beverage 25 /bottle(excluding whisky), Bed Rent local 200/night/ person and bead rooms
CLASIIC ROOM 700, FAMILLY ROOM 1200 and SUITE 3200 for all overnight visitors.
Boat launch fees and fishing fees were not factored in as these transactions were understood
to be for the account of the business.
9.6.4 GAS STATION & LODGE AND GUST HOUSE OPERATION COST
The total operating cost is estimated very large even annual operation activities because of high
amount of fuel sales are operated. Operating costs will be recorded in a year basis. The operation
cost is described here & the amount and interest rate and loan agreement are need to be further
discussed during negotiation it is divided into overheads (fixed costs) and variable costs.

10. FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS
10.1 PROJECTED INCOME STATEMENT
It may be seen from the profitability estimates that the unit would earn a net profit after taxation of
birr 14.379 million during the first years of operation at 80% of the capacity. The net profit after tax
will increase gradually from to ET. Birr 15.750 million in the second year 90% of the capacity and
birr 17.759 million in the third year when the unit expects to achieve 100% utilization of capacity.
On the above basis, there is adequate generation of funds out of the Gas Station and Cultural Lodge
and gust House business operation to service the repayment of term loan and interest liabilities, as
also to meet additional requirement of margin money for working capital in the second and
subsequent years. Further, adequate surplus cash is available with the unit for promoter withdrawal.
