This review article examines the supply chain management of avocado fruits in Ethiopia, providing a comprehensive analysis of the current status, challenges, and opportunities within the sector. The study explores the stages of the supply chain, from production and post-harvest handling to transportation and market access. This review article utilized electronic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Agricola, with a publication period between 2010 and 2024. The search was limited to articles written in English that focused on the avocado supply chain management in Ethiopia. Additionally, relevant grey literature and reports from agricultural organizations were included. A total of 29 articles and reports were selected and thoroughly examined. Key findings reveal that challenges identified included inadequate infrastructure, limited technological adoption, and insufficient farmer support. The review concludes with Recommendations include investing in better infrastructure, providing training and support to farmers, and adopting advanced technologies for post-harvest processing. By addressing these issues, Ethiopia can strengthen its position in the global avocado market, thereby boosting the incomes of local farmers and contributing to the country's economic development.
