All identified observational studies reporting the prevalence of <jats:italic>Listeria<\/jats:italic> species in different food items of animal and plant origin in Ethiopia were included.

The highest prevalence of <jats:italic>Listeria<\/jats:italic> species was reported in beef meat followed by ice cream with prevalence rates of 62% (95% CI 50, 75) and 43% (95% CI 33, 53), respectively.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The presence of <jats:italic>Listeria<\/jats:italic> species in different food items of animal and plant origin in Ethiopia is an indicator of the presence of public health hazards to the consumer, particularly to the high-risk groups.
