To transport food aid, the World Food Programme (WFP) primarily contracts with third-party transport carriers in markets that are not well understood. We analyze historical contracts between the WFP in Ethiopia and private carriers using multiple linear regression to gain insights in these markets. Analyses of bids and contracts in Ethiopia show that distance alone explains less than 20% of the variability in effective transportation tariffs. By incorporating additional variables for linehaul costs, market structure measures and socio- economics factors, we obtain a model that explains more than 84% of the variability for the international corridors and 78% for the domestic lanes.
