Lecos
Premium selected glass formulations optimized for rapid customs clearance and the high-end cosmetic and therapeutic demands of East African brands.
As East Africa's fastest-growing economy, Ethiopia is undergoing an unprecedented shift toward light industrial manufacturing. The Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, through initiatives like the Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP), has prioritized import substitution and local value addition. Key sectors such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and high-end beverages are expanding rapidly. However, the domestic production of specialized glass packaging remains highly constrained.
This mismatch between the local supply of container glass and the booming needs of domestic cosmetic and essential oil processors (including traditional Ethiopian Nigella Sativa oil and cosmetic serums) has led manufacturers to source globally. Leading brands based in Addis Ababa, Hawassa Industrial Park, and Bole Lemi Industrial Park demand glass containers that comply with international standards for chemical inertness, barrier properties, and dimensional stability.
With over 10 years of direct manufacturing expertise, Lecos Glass operates at the intersection of material science and premium aesthetic design. For cosmetics and essential oil manufacturers in Ethiopia, standard raw glass is rarely sufficient to project brand equity and protect active ingredients.
We supply high-performance barrier solutions, including thick-base luxury cosmetic jars, amber glass for photoprotection, and frosted glass options. Our custom deep-processing capabilities include high-end decoration methods:
Looking toward 2030, the global glass industry is rapidly transitioning to decarbonization. For Ethiopian importers under pressure from conscious consumers and tightening environmental regulations, Lecos Glass offers lightweighting technology (reducing glass weight by up to 20% while maintaining container integrity). This significantly reduces carbon emissions during transport and lowers ocean freight costs per unit.
Our logistics support features robust wooden-pallet packaging, shrink-wrapping, and heavy-duty corrugated board partitions. This design handles the intermodal transit journey from global ports through the Gulf of Aden to the highlands of Ethiopia, keeping product breakage rates under 0.5%.
Lecos Glass has been dedicated to the glass packaging industry for over 10 years, offering wholesale glass bottles and jars for cosmetics, perfumes, personal care, essential oils, and candle packaging. We take pride in offering customized glass bottles to our clients globally, including key developing brands in East Africa.

Our glass bottle prices fluctuate depending on raw material costs, energy rates, and custom finish requirements. Once your company contacts us with specific details (quantities, sizes, and decoration styles), we will send you a tailored quote with port-to-port or door-to-door delivery estimates.
Yes. Because of high-efficiency production runs on automated lines, we require a minimum order quantity for international orders. Standard designs in stock have flexible MOQs, while custom-molded glass shapes or complex spray-coated designs require higher minimum runs. Please reach out to discuss your brand's specific needs.
Yes, we provide essential documentation to help speed up customs clearance in Ethiopia. This includes Certificates of Analysis (CoA), Conformity Certificates, safety data reports, packing lists, Bills of Lading (B/L), and Certificates of Origin.
For pre-production samples, the lead time is about 7 days. Mass production averages 20 to 30 days after we receive your deposit and approve the final drawings. Transit times vary depending on shipping line schedules from our port to Djibouti, and the subsequent rail or road transfer to Addis Ababa.
We accept wire transfers (T/T), Western Union, and PayPal. Our typical terms are a 30% deposit to begin production, with the remaining 70% balance paid against a copy of the Bill of Lading (B/L).
We guarantee the quality of our materials and construction. Our goal is to ensure you are fully satisfied with every batch. If any issues arise, our team is committed to resolving them quickly through replacements or account credits.
Yes. We pack our shipments for long-distance transport using heavy-duty, sea-freight-grade pallets, plastic wrapping, and corner protectors to minimize movement. We also use specific certified packaging for hazardous materials or temperature-sensitive goods if required.
Shipping fees depend on the size, weight, and transit speed you choose. Air express is fastest but most expensive. Sea freight to Djibouti port is the most economical choice for large orders. We will calculate the most cost-effective rates once you share your order volume and destination.
