1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Back Ground
The Ethiopian economy continued to grow in 2021/22 withstanding both domestic and external
challenges. Real GDP grew 6.4 percent slightly higher than 6.3 percent growth in the previous
year. This growth was attributed to 7.6 percent growth in service sector, 6.1 percent increase in
agriculture and 4.9 percent expansion in industry sector. As a result, the share of services in GDP
rose to 40 percent from 39.6 percent a year ago while that of agriculture dropped to 32.4 percent
that of industry to 28.9 percent.
The manufacturing sector growth was higher than the growths’ of the other two sectors due to
the fact that the country is looking for the transformation of its economy from agriculture to
industry. Though, the manufacturing sector of Ethiopia constitutes a small section of the
economy, it has shown significant growth and diversification in recent years. The Ethiopian
government is working hard to expand the manufacturing sector with a view to make the sector
become competitive in the international market.
Telecommunication is one of the prime support services needed for rapid growth and modernization of
various sectors of the economy. Expansion of infrastructure development such as telecommunication
would have significant impact on attracting investment, creating market opportunities, enhancing
competitiveness and boosting regional economic integration.
Mobile (cellular) phone industry is among those that experienced the fastest growths in the
communication industry. Today’s ever-changing modernizations and countless emerging
innovations have resulted in vast improvements in cell phone technology. As a result, the cell
phone industry keeps on growing since this gadget has become an indispensable everyday tool
for everyone in the world.
1.2. Objective
The objective of the study is to produce a document that will serve as a source of up to date raw
data and information (reference) for appraisal of projects related to the sector and for making
proper decision in the process of delivering credit to prospective borrowers.
1.3. Methodology
The study utilizes both primary and secondary data. Primary data were collected through
dispatched questionnaires, interviewing and site visit to Tecno Mobile plc, and Tana
1
Communication plc. Out of existing assemblers, On the other hand, secondary data was obtained
from reviewing of all relevant sources in the internet websites, publication and reports of various
governmental organizations and the main documents of mobile assembly commodity study.
The scope of the study mainly focused on mobile assembling and marketing in Ethiopia. The
study starts from assembled PCBA and imported other components of mobile phone (both
Feature and Smart) phone. This study focuses on SKD because PCBA Assembly commodity
study is already conducted by the directorate and it is not necessary to include in this study. So,
for CKD Plant PCBA Assembly commodity study have to be referred in addition to this study.
Limitations
Due to absence of organized & well recorded data on mobile assembling sector in Ethiopia
unable to show the price trend of major raw materials and inputs. Beside, some mobile assembler
companies are not willing to provide data and support the research team.

2. COMMODITY DESCRIPTION
2.1. Definition of the Commodity
Mobile Phone: also known as a cellular phone, cell phone, hand phone, is a phone that can make
and receive telephone calls over a radio link while moving around a wide geographic area. It
does so by connecting to a cellular network provided by a mobile phone operator, allowing
access to the public telephone network. Mobile phones have increasingly become tools that
consumers use for banking, payments, budgeting, and shopping.
Smart phones: Smartphone includes devices with touch screens. This smart phone
embeds advanced technology, comparable to the one use for computers. It is priced to
match its capabilities. It runs on a dedicated platform or advanced mobile operating
system.
Multimedia Phone: Multimedia Phone is a touch screen and/or keypad, but without an
advanced operating system. The Multimedia phone is somewhere between the mobile
and Smartphone. It often designed around one or a few major features (High-resolution
camera, high quality sound or native applications).
Feature Phones: A feature phone is a class of mobile phone; the term is typically used
as a heteronym to describe low-end mobile phones which are limited in capabilities in
contrast to a modern Smartphone. Feature phones typically provide voice calling and
text messaging functionality, in addition to basic multimedia and internet capabilities,
and other services offered by the user's wireless service provider. Feature Phones have
no touch screen, touch keypad, or advanced operating system. The mobile has a basic
purpose: to help make calls and send SMS messages. These cheap phones are still
popular because of the longevity of their batteries, their sustainable design and their low
price. The above classification is general but as technological advancement grows
different types of mobile phones are introducing through time.

4. Technical Study of Mobile Assembly
4.1. Technical Background of the Commodity
Hand set Assembly is the process of assembly of Printed circuit board (PCBA) and fixing it to
the casing. The major component or the heart of any electronic product is PCBA of that specific
product which will be assembled by the electronics assembler, in this case (handset) assembler
company itself. Whereas depending on the assembler interest, the casing/housing/ can be
manufactured by its Owen or can be purchased from suppliers. Handset/assembly is a simple ‘fix
the PCBA of the electronics (Hand set) in our case, to the casing’ process once the PCBA is
assembled. Therefore describing PCBA is almost same as describing handset assembly. Only
few soldering inter connecting parts of the electronic product is done during fixing PCBA to its
casing. Hence, Handset assembly can be seen as a two-step process.
1. Printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) –which its commodity study is already studied
2. Fixing the PCBA to the casing (housing)- which is this commodities main concern
The printed circuit board assemblies commodity study of the bank is already done previously and
this commodity study focus on the assembly of Handset assuming that the PCBA commodity
study will be referred for any electronic assembly request.
It has to be noted that in electronics assembly, it is the electronic components to be placed on the
board (PCB) & design on the board that determines the type of the final electronic product.
8
4.1.2. Fixing the PCBA to the casing (housing)
Once a PCBA is ready, for most electronics, it will be fixed to the casing using screw; SKD level
assembly will be done (soldering very few parts) and tested for different functionality parameter
depending on the product type.
For most cell phones, there are three key components: a printed circuit that controls the keypad
and signal reception, a battery, and screen. In addition to the hardware, software is also required
for the phone to operate. Almost all cell phone manufacturers use proprietary software for their
phones. The software is designed by a series of programmers that develop the design of the
interface, the phone's basic/advanced operations, and other features. By default, most modern
phones are programmed with basic features like text messaging, calendar, fax, data, and clock.
After these components and software are determined, the phone moves on to final construction.
In order to study the assembly operations involved in phone manufacturing, all the parts of a
mobile phone units used in assembly plant must be considered. The basic mechanical and
electronic parts found in a mobile phone are circuit board, key pad, speaker micro phone,
antenna, battery and battery connector, LCD (liquid crystal display), structural parts (front and
back housing), handset, hand set connector and SIM card connector. Assembly sequence in
phones basically follows the part-oriented approach. Most of the parts in phone/electronics must
follow specific sequence to be fitted in. The figure below shows exploded view of typical cell
phone parts.

Fig
From the assembly operations, the parts taking place in the assembly process can be joined
with sets of assembly techniques, and the most commonly ways used in the assembly of
phone handsets are: -
(a) Peg-in-hole / Male - Female insertion
(b) Snap Press Fit Assembly
(c) Screw and Pin Fastening.
(d) Notch Locked assembly.
(e) Heat staking and Thermal Seal
(f) Pick-and-Place
(g) Attaching using different adhesives

4.4. Handset Assembly Process Description
The Electronics (handset) assembly process is therefore, can start from procurement of not
assembled circuit boards (PCB) and other electronics components from such suppliers. If the
process starts from assembled circuit board, then the assembly process is smooth and easy
having no environmentally un-friendly activity. But its value addition is insignificant and not
recommended. Therefore, electronics assemble production process must start from PCBA
assembly. For this specific commodity study since the PCBA assembly commodity study is
already done the production process will start assuming PCBA assembly is done by the
electronics assemblers as per the banks commodity study on the specific product.

During the actual production, all the parts like the LCD, keypad, antenna, battery,
microphone, and circuit board go through a manufacturer’s assembly line where humans pick
11
them up and put them together into phone units. Each phone then goes for rigorous testing to
ensure that every part and feature – battery, video, keypad, messaging, calling, etc functions
well. Those that failed the quality tests are rejected or reworked. The units whose qualities
have met standards are then packaged, shipped and delivered. Human intervention could
come in the process of installing high-value components, visual inspection and testing.
The assembly processes and sequences followed in every phone assembly varies depending
on the type of technology the factories are using, the detail of assembly i.e. the types of
components, parts, and subassemblies from which the hand set is to be made, etc. In general
assembly of hand set is categorized into three functional groups.
b) Parts Assembly: -phone assembly line puts the phone parts together. An assembly line
consists of a row of multiple assembling machines/skilled persons to house the phones while
they are being built. Because the small parts are sensitive to specks of materials like hair and
dusts, the assembly plant need to be conditioned and protected.
12
Furthermore, it is important to maintain the temperature in the room, to ensure that the
machines do not break down due to overheating and the chips do not melt. Keeping the room
between 55 and 65 degrees F is ideal.
Once the parts are put together another essential task by hand follows, i.e. sandwiching the
completed printed circuit board between front and back structural frames, later adding the
outside covers. During the assembly process, each part goes through rigorous quality
controls, to ensure that even the smallest part functions well.
The last step in the production turns a generic phone into one customized to the exacting
specifications of phone users around the world. Each handset is put into a cradle, where it is
given a unique serial number. Then, depending on who the customer is, a unique batch of
software code is loaded on the phone. Finally the phone is passed to the next process station
for rigorous testing of every part and the loaded software. After the phone is tested for
different functionalities it will pass to packaging line.
c) Labeling and Packing of the Hand Set with Accessories: - Commonly phones are packed
into retail boxes by hand, with appropriate documentation and accessories, and then logged
into a tracking system using a bar-code reader. The separately prepared labels describing the
manufacturer, batch number, the country of manufacturing, and other important descriptions
are usually pasted on the package boxes of phones. The boxes of phones are palletized for
mass transportation. Palettes are loaded into trucks on the loading dock, and trucks head out
to the airport, the port, or overland to deliver phones to carriers and retailers to targeted
customers.
13
Whatever type of high-tech assembly and testing system is employed in a phone assembly plant,
it's inspected one last time by an unmatched testing resource of human eye. Usually a tiny
fraction of phones fail this final test. Then, before being packed, the phone is de-ionized to
remove dust and electrical charge from the surface
The primary utilities required in the production of electronics are municipal water and electricity.
During the interruption of main power supply, a Generator Set can be used. Moreover for some
sensitive production areas where power interruption cause damage to raw materials and
machines UPS is a must. The total amount of power should be calculated from the specific cases
machine specification.
Plant Location
The project can be located in any place where there is sufficient availability of electric power
supply and municipal water availability. The preferred locations based on techno-economic
considerations, the typical unit may be set up in the capital cities, big towns or in major urban
areas preferably nearby marketing centers.

5. MARKET STUDY
5.1. Market Segmentation
Since the information and communication device industry is one of the most global businesses,
market segmentation of this study considers both domestic and export market. Ethiopia has a
little experience of exporting mobile phones to different African countries and the rest of world.
Export is considered as one and the best strategy by government as well as assemblers to
penetrate the world market.
On the other hand Ethiopia imports mobile Phone based on market demand. Various kinds of the
information and communication devices are widely imported from abroad because the county’s
technological development is an infant stage and local assembly is dependent on imported spare
parts. So, due to the above reasons, the market study gives more emphasis and provides a brief
look at the domestic market situation as well as export market.

5.3. Ethiopian Market
5.3.1. Domestic Subscription
Telecommunication is one of the prime support services needed for rapid growth and
modernization of various sectors of the economy. Expansion of infrastructure development such
as telecommunication would have significant impact on attracting investment, creating market
opportunities, enhancing competitiveness and boosting regional economic integration.
Taking this into account, the Ethiopian government has made major investments in telecom
sector to improve service quality, coverage and institutional capacity. As a result, Ethio Telecom
has set ambitious targets to enhance customer acquisition, customer satisfaction and provision of
quality services to its customers.
During 2021/22, total number of Ethio telecom subscribers reached 66.6 million showing 18.4
percent annual increment owing to 18.7 percent rise in mobile voice and 19.6 percent increase in
internet & data subscribers, despite the 3 percent decline in fixed voice service subscribers.
Of the total subscribers, mobile voice accounted for 64.5 million taking the lion’s share of (96.9
percent), followed by internet & data 1.2 million (1.8 percent) and fixed voice service 885
thousand (1.3 percent)

5.3.4. Domestic Production
As per the data obtained from Technology development Institute in Ethiopia currently only two
factories which engaged in the assembly of mobile. The domestically assembled Mobile is very
too small as compared to the demand for mobile phone in Ethiopia. This is because of the
majority of phone is imported to Ethiopia illegally by contraband. And the second one is all most
all raw material is imported from abroad. This mainly affects the domestic production of mobile
phone in the country and former some assembler’s factory is closed due to the above mentioned
problems. The detail designed and actual capacity of Mobile assembler is listed in the table
below.

The promotion or advertisement is one of the marketing strategies that the coming Mobile Phone
assembling factories have to focus. It is known that the advertisement cost is higher in the
introduction/ market penetration stages that the factories have also introduces and convince about
the new feature, its application and advantages and thereby meet and exceed the ever growing
customer need in the face of globalization and dynamically improvement of technology.
In line with this, the current market arrangement shows a mobile assemblers use cash base sales
by distributing their products for different electronics sales shops. Some well-known brand
assemblers have their own branding shop and sales so on region as market strategy.
20
The marketing channel for mobile phone on open market
Assemblers
End users
The market channel for Mobiles supplied to Ethio-tele is directly from Assemblers to Tele center
based on term of agreement. Ethio-tele distribute free or by discounted price to their customers.
Local market plus export market initiates local supply chain (component level manufacturing). If
local market is secured for assemblers and export market is developed, there will be component
level supply chain in Ethiopia. For export market, Ethiopia has a great advantage due to
Ethiopian Airlines’ strength in air cargo as mobiles are shipped via air.
The price trend is not found but, current market price of mobile phone is included in parameter
part just to show current market price of sample mobiles.
Controbands: there are lot of mobile that enter in to the country through illegal way or
contraband which in turn affect the competition power of the local assemblers that still hinder
the market power of domestically established assemblers.
21
Customer’s perception for local product: - It is obvious that one of the major problems of
developing countries is the perception of customers for local production. The customer
prefers to purchase foreign product rather than local product.
Price competition: - China’s products are the most rival for the domestic producers in
Ethiopia. As China has wide market at the global level it has the capability to easily cover the
production cost through bulk production and sell at lower price which will negatively affect
the local producers.
Market and technology volatile with high competition: The demand for products is volatile and
changes dramatically depending on trends including colour, picture quality and different
features and preferences of customers. it needs to follow the trends of such a change
Power interruption: - Assembling is one of the power consuming industries so that it is
sensitive to power interruption because once power is interrupted it may result in delay of
production.
Shortage of foreign currency: - The availability of hard currency is not always reliable and
hence the project may face a constraint to import assembly parts. of the factories in the
country, only two factories are currently in production because most of the factories are
closed due to the foreign exchange problem.
Dependency on import for major raw material
22
Create sustainable market chain: mobile phone assemblers must create sustainable
market chain distribution system by using distribution agents, whole sellers, credit based
distribution system and others
This part of the study is devoted in assessment of the coefficients and parameters, which are used
to determine the costs and revenue in preparation Mobile Phone Assembling Industries. The very
important caution which has to be taken by the users of this study is that the parameters and
prices determined are just indicatives, which help understand where the real parameter lays.
7.1. Basic assumption
7.2. Revenue
Table 11: Current factory gate price of sample Mobile Phones without VAT
Remark: The price of Mobile Phones is mysterious and highly determined by the brand. So, the
price listed above is just indicative of current market price, so that assigned team recommends
not relay only the above listed prices in to in revenue calculation.
Export price is not significantly found and manipulated in concerned body; it is therefore found
difficult to incorporate in the parameter part.

Remark: The price of the consumables is taken from the previous study by thinking that it will
be an indicator or a comparison, because there is only one factory that is currently producing it,
26
because it is not willing to give information and there is no other manufacturer at the moment, so
we could not get the latest price.
The above stated price represented raw materials used for one specific mobile model only. But
raw materials type and price is highly depending on design of the mobile in this sector. So it is
difficult to put representative price for each raw materials since they are not standard
items .hence the price of each raw materials shall be decided based on design of mobile and
required raw materials in accordance with specific design the assemblers demanded.
