EUROPE’S BIGGEST TRADE AND FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT CONVENTION ON UK TO UGANDA! About UCUK

Uganda Convention-UK (UCUK)’s main objectives are to create awareness, support, promote and encourage trade and investment from the private sector between Uganda (East Africa) and the United Kingdom. It also aims to create a platform to facilitate and access trade opportunities for the private and the public sectors in Uganda and UK. UCUK also promotes Ugandan exports and identify export opportunities, so that the export earnings close the gap with the import demand, and facilitates the transformation of Uganda from a current consuming nation into a producing nation. UCUK also strongly encourages people to explore the latest innovations in food production, food supply and technology, energy production, and encourages a new approach of thinking ‘outside the box’ when it comes to doing business with Africa.

We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community...

Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others, for their sakes and for our own.
