Uganda’s local industries are set to benefit from the new trade mission to East Africa organized by the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI).
According to Abdullah Sultan Al Owais Chairman Sharjah Exports Development Centre, SCCI has organized a trade mission to Uganda and Kenya between 9th -11th December as part of its strategy to find and develop marketing opportunities for local industries in promising foreign markets
The chamber’s trade mission traveled on on 10th December 2018, along with the participation of 30 national companies that operate in various manufacturing and industrial sectors such as iron, steel, food, power solutions and electronic devices, among others. The chamber looks to establish trade relations and to review the investment opportunities available in both Kenya and Uganda.
This will help the local industries in Uganda to gain more access to the international markets and encourage more investment into the East African economies.
The mission will include representatives from Expo Centre Sharjah, as well as a number of businesspeople and investors from Sharjah. The mission will be held in coordination with the UAE embassies in both Kenya and Uganda, and in cooperation with Dubai Consultancy, as well as with a partnership with the Federation of UAE Chambers.
Abdullah said that organising this new trade mission to East Africa is part of the chamber’s aspirations to promote the Emirate of Sharjah as a leading economic and trade centre in the region, and as part of its efforts to enhance the competitiveness of the emirate’s business community, as well as to support national industries and exports, and to attract and exchange investments that help in building a sustainable economy.
