Mukwano Group’s flawless display of a wide range of quality products, exceptional customer care and fantastic ambiance did not only impress our visitors but were a source of pride for Uganda Manufacturers Association (UMA), the organizers of the Trade Fair.

No wonder Mukwano was Best Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) Exhibitor at the 23rd UMA International Trade Fair that ended on October 11th at Lugogo in Kampala.

One of the leading conglomerates in East and Central Africa, Mukwano showcased its laundry bar soaps, detergent powders, toilet soap, cooking oils and fats, jelly, liquid detergent, natural mineral water, plastics and agricultural products.

Prime Minister Rt. Hon. Ruhakana Rugunda who was led to the Mukwano pavilion by UMA Chairman Mr. Amos Nzeyi and Minister of Trade, Industry and Cooperatives Hon. America Kyambadde was impressed as well.

“This is nice. Mukwano this is exemplary and you should even continue giving the consumers more products,” remarked Rugunda. Mukwano Chief Executive Officer Mr. Tony Gadhoke received the Prime Minister.

We marked the closure of the trade fair with raffle draw in which Mr. Robert Mabala was the lucky winner of a motorcycle. Mukwano General Manager-Sales and Market Mr. Sangam Abdul Kader randomly picked the winning ticket.
