Why Uganda

Uganda enjoys a unique location at the heart of SubSaharan Africa within the East African region and lies astride the equator. Uganda is a landlocked, bordered by Sudan in the north, Kenya in the east, the United Republic of Tanzania in the south, Rwanda in the southwest and the Democratic Republic of Congo in the west. This land linked position, gives the country a strategic commanding base to be a regional hub for trade and investment.

Some of the reasons to do business in Uganda include; • • • • •

• • • • • • •

Stable liberalised economy. Strong natural resources base Government commitment to private sector Low cost and trainable workforce Investment incentives and security with repatriation of profits, re-export support schemes. Regional markets like south sudan, comesa and the east african common market which has a market of over 160 million consumers with a total gdp of usd84.7 Billion and drc places uganda as a strategic market to be a hub for businesses not only for uganda but for the entire region Uganda is increasing its connectivity with the 160 million-person east african community Through several large-scale highway projects The standard gauge railway and the recently-announced usd 4 billion oil pipeline to Tanzania A rapidly growing consumer demographic With 50 percent of Uganda’s population under the age of 15 Abundant resources such as fertile agriculture land and 6.5 Billion barrels of oil reserves and o a record of strong economic growth averaging six percent per year over the past decade due to the gou’s investments in power generation and road infrastructure.

Over 100 UK and US companies are operating in Uganda. These include well-known companies like Tullow Oil, Standard Chartered Bank, Barclays Bank, Unilever, Citibank; Prudential; AIG; Caterpillar; John Deere; NCR; Sheraton; Marriott; FedEx, Ernst & Young, Deloitte; Price Waterhouse Coopers; General Motors; Coca-Cola; Pepsi-Cola; and American Tower Corporation, Shell and British Airways.

strong natural resource base government commitment to private sector low cost workforce part of 2 regional blocs which increases the potential consumer base attractive investment policies

A potential investor considering investing in Uganda, will find a well regulated highly liberalized economy in which all sectors are open for investment and there is a free movement of capital to and from the country. Top prospect sectors for U.K. exports to Uganda include: agro-processing, farm and construction equipment; oil production technologies; power generation; renewable energy technologies; manufacturing equipment; information and communication technology products; medical equipment; pharmaceuticals; cosmetics; and consumer goods. The 2013 Index of Economic Freedom ranked Uganda, the 8th freest economy out of the 46 SubSaharan Africa countries. The business operating environment allows the full repatriation of profits after the mandatory taxes have been paid, as well as 100% foreign ownership of private investments. The incentive regime is structurally embedded in the country’s tax laws making them non-discriminatory and accessible to both domestic and foreign investment depending on the sector and level of investment. The minimum capital investment required for a foreign investor to be eligible to invest in the country in virtually any sector, apart from those that may compromise the country’s security, is US$100,000. Return on investment is about 5% projected to increase to about 7% due to ongoing and planned infrastructural (roads, railway, energy) development that will ensue from the developments in the oil sector (refinery and crude oil export). Uganda’s GDP

is between US$25 billion to US$26 billion, with stable economic growth averaging 5 to 7%. In order to provide a conducive environment for doing business in Uganda, the government of Uganda has created a One Stop Centre (OSC) for business registration and licensing at the Uganda Investment Authority. The OSC also assists in tax advice and registration, immigration and work permit issues, land acquisition and verification, as well as environmental compliance and approvals. Accessing all these services under one roof saves the investor both time and money to have their projects licensed and implemented expeditiously. “Britain’s reputation – the goods and services offered by British businesses are often, if not always, considered superior than those of its competitors. It is seen to have a quality, akin to a Kitemark Standard, that others simply don’t match. Uganda Government are very keen for British project management to be involved; whilst other countries can offer cheap labour. Shared History – The UK and Uganda have a long and powerful history that makes doing business there easier. There is, of course, the shared language; the legal systems operate on the same principles; we share our commitment to democracy and there is tremendous respect for Great Britain in Uganda.” Lord Popat, Prime Ministers Trade Envoy to Uganda and Rwanda. Opportunities for UK businesses in Uganda: Top exports to Uganda includes agro-processing, road, maintenance equipment’s, pharmaceutical, road vehicles, power generating machinery and general industrial machineries. Top imports from Uganda relates to agriculture products which includes vegetables, fruits, tobacco, coffee, tea, and spices.

Box 2: Case study – Rosebud Rosebud Ltd is a flower-growing company, part of the Ruparelia Group, that has grown from 13 hectares in 2000 to 80 in 2016, employing 1,500 people, of whom 60 per cent are women, and capturing 40 per cent of Uganda’s flower-export market. It is the first flower farm in East Africa with 100 per cent hydroponic production, and gained certification in 2007 enabling it to export into international markets. Uganda’s reliable climate allows consistent rather than seasonal production, and the company’s location close to Lake Victoria allows access to international air links via Entebbe airport. However, challenges for Ugandan firms in the horticulture sector include the lack of locally produced inputs, relatively costly electricity and water supplies, and a lack of technical skills in the local job market. Hydroponic flower production is complex, expensive and risky, but Rosebud demonstrates the scale of success possible in Uganda if businesses have the necessary leadership, capital and expertise.

The top five reasons

TO EXPORT TO UGANDA INCLUDE:

Uganda, home to about 39 million people with a growing middle income class with reasonable expendable income, is part of the East African Community (EAC) that has a potential market of about 140 million. It is also part of Common Market of Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) which comprises 20 member states with 380 million people and imports about US $ 170 billion annually.

1. A free-market economy, with few limits on foreign investment (outside of local content requirements in the oil and gas sector) and repatriation of funds. 2. An English-speaking and rapidly growing consumer demographic, with a 3 percent population growth rate and a 5 percent urbanization rate. 3. Increasing connectivity with the 160 millionperson East African Community through several large-scale highway projects, the standard gauge railway, and a $4 billion oil pipeline to Tanzania. 4. Abundant resources such as fertile agriculture land and 6.5 billion barrels of oil reserves. 5. A relatively stable political and security environment. 11

FOCUSED ON SECTORS: Manufacturing | Agribusiness | Energy & Natural Resources | Construction & Transportation | IT & Fintech | Health & Tourism Agriculture •

Agriculture, forestry and fishing provide approximately 66 percent of the employment in Uganda. Traditional exports such as coffee, tea and cotton continue to be mainstays while nontraditional crops which include vanilla, hides and skins, cut flowers and fish among others continue growing. Uganda traditionally exports raw products however; the government of Uganda is advocating for foreign investment in agricultural processing in order to increase export earnings from the produce. Therefore, opportunities exist in processing equipment, horticulture and staple foods processing. Uganda’s climate makes this sector suitable for commercial development.

Manufacturing •

Investment opportunities •

12

Uganda is endowed with favourable climatic conditions that support agriculture. The growing agricultural sector presents investment opportunities in the areas of forestry, processing and packaging of agricultural produce i.e. cotton and textiles, food crops, honey and dairy products. The opportunity to provide services to businesses in the sector also exists; i.e. insurance services, cargo freight and cold storage in the field of floriculture as well as warehouse facilities. More recently, there is a need for the establishment of laboratories for pest and disease surveillance and diagnosis as well as local human capacity development in the sector.

machinery as well as the establishment of cold storage facilities and production of packaging materials.

Uganda’s manufacturing sector has been steadily growing through the years. Opportunities continue to exist in all areas of manufacturing such as beverages, paper, fabrication, leather, textiles and garments, pharmaceuticals and medical products. The most important sectors are the processing of agricultural products (such as coffee curing), the manufacture of light consumer goods and textiles, and the production of beverages, electricity, and cement. The manufacturing sector contributes between 7-10% to country’s Gross Domestic Product and has been growing at an average of 10% for the last three decades, according to the Uganda Manufacturer’s Association. In addition, the sector also contributes 40% of jobs created by the private sector. Uganda’s manufacturing sector continues growing due to increased domestic security, tax breaks and market reform.

Telecommunications Media and Technology •

• •

Investment opportunities •

A key opportunity in the manufacturing sector is in the manufacturing of electrical fittings i.e. conduits, cables and switches which have a high demand but low local supply. Other areas for investment in manufacturing include the manufacture of medical supplies and equipment such as diagnostic materials and veterinary pharmaceuticals; the manufacturing of agricultural inputs such as fertilizers and agricultural

Uganda-UK Convention (UCUK 2018)

Uganda’s telecommunications infrastructure is growing at an average annual rate of 10%. Mobile phone companies such as Airtel, Africell, Vodafone and MTN provide coverage in most of the rural and urban areas. The installation of marine fibre optic cable along the East African coast in 2009, alongside increasing competition among telecom companies has resulted in improvements in both the cost and performance of the sector though quality internet service remains costly and slow by international standards. Under this sector, exporting telecommunication hardware offers the best prospects. The following products are in high demand in Uganda: cellular and wireless telephone systems, data transmission equipment, fiber optic equipment, switches and routers among others.

Investment opportunities •

The friendly and supportive investment climate in Uganda has led to the development of investment opportunities in the ICT sector. The fact that the country is now connected to three marine fibre optic cables has given rise to more opportunities to leverage ICT in the provision of innovative services. The growth of the sector is evidenced

www.ugandanconventionuk.org


by its growing percentage contribution to GDP since 2006. Key areas for investment in the sector include; investment in telecommunications infrastructure, digital TV broadcasting, film and animation production, data warehousing and management, business process outsourcing, health related information systems as well as capacity building in the sector via investments in ICT training institutions.

exportation to neighbouring countries in 2018.Average annual demand grows at 9% since 2005. Net consumption is forecast to increase to 4.7TWh in 2021 from 3.5TWh in 2016 as a result of increased population and government electrification projects via commissioning of various transmission lines. Generation to overshoot consumption 2018+ as a result of infrastructure investments. There is limited rivalry amongst key players in the generation of electricity because of the power generation deficit hence potential for the competitive generation of electricity with the increased investment in large hydropower generation infrastructure, new renewable technologies and distributed generation systems.

Tourism •

• •

The distinctive attraction of Uganda as a tourist destination arises from the variety of its game stock (Including the rare tree climbing lions of Ishasha, white rhinoceros, gorillas, elephants and its unspoiled scenic beauty including forests, hills, mountains, rivers and lakes. 51% of the world’s known population of mountain gorillas live in Uganda. Uganda is home to 11% of the world’s bird species (a total of 1060 bird species) which offers a wide range of bird species. The opportunities in tourism range from constructing high quality accommodation facilities, operating tours and travel circuits (bicycle tours, hot air balloon travel, rafting on the River Nile and Lake Victoria) to the development of specialised eco and community tourism systems, as well as faith based tourism (pilgrimage to Namugongo – Uganda Martyrs, Mahatma Gandhi Statue and Bishop Hannington landing site on the Nile River).

Investment opportunities •

Power and Infrastructure •

Uganda’s energy sector attracts one of the largest investments by the Government of Uganda and the private sector. Uganda currently has one of the lowest per capita electricity consumption in the world with 215 kWh per capita per year (Sub-Saharan Africa’s average: 552 kWh per capita, World average: 2,975 per capita). The Government of Uganda is working to expand its power supply by constructing a number of micro-hydro projects along the Nile River and is promoting the development of other sources of renewable energy, such as off-grid solar power systems. Infrastructure is required to develop Uganda’s oil reserves and is estimated to cost about USD 10 billion and construction is estimated to begin in the current year, 2017. Infrastructure funding currently comprises about 32.8% of the total Ugandan government expenditure every year. Infrastructure development contributes immensely to increased productivity by facilitating efficient connectivity and easing the movement of goods and the provision of services Hydropower has the potential to double current levels over the next ten years, but lack of diversity poses vulnerability in case of weather changes. Hydropower generation is forecasted to grow to 6.7TWh in 2025. Uganda is poised to begin electricity

Uganda-UK Convention (UCUK 2018)

The second National Development Plan of Uganda pays keen attention to private sector investment in the generation of electricity to support the development of industry and in turn increase the country’s GDP in line with the goals of the Vision 2040. The major goals in the sector include, increase in generation capacity, extension of the transmission grid (rural electrification), energy affordability and efficiency as well as the promotion of renewable sources of energy. The key investment opportunities in the sector are therefore investments in renewable energies and renewable energy research such as wind power, solar energy and geothermal well testing and appraisal. Investment in cross border electrification and regional interconnection is also a government priority. Opportunities for investment in this sector are also existent in the establishment of decentralised electricity generation plant and grids.

Services •

The fastest growing sub-sectors in the services sector of Uganda are human health services, accommodation and food services, and real estate.

Investment opportunities •

There are opportunities for capacity building in human resources for health. In real estate, opportunities to invest in commercial and land real estate development, brokerage and management are fostered by increasing demand and enabling policies and regulations. Investment is encouraged in road construction and rehabilitation, the establishment of cold storage and transport facilities, capacity building in road construction and maintenance, investment in local domestic water transport systems and infrastructure, cargo forwarding and clearing and aircraft maintenance services. Planned government projects in housing to be executed under Public Private Partnerships, for example the construction of accommodation facilities for the Uganda People’s Defence Force, also offer opportunities for investment.

Investment Opportunities in the Oil and Gas sector

There are opportunities for investment in the Oil and Gas industry as private sector investment is encouraged by the Government of Uganda (GoU). The government fosters partnerships between local and foreign companies especially for service provision. A favorable legal and fiscal framework as well,

In addition to producing and exporting crude oil, Uganda plans to build a refinery to produce petroleum products for the domestic and EAC markets. A number of oil companies such as Total, CNOOC and Tullow Oil Plc are currently conducting a pipeline study to determine the best routing for the oil pipeline.

coupled with improving infrastructure in the country have allowed for opportunities for joint ventures with existing companies in the industry, opportunities to invest in logistics services, waste management and treatment, geophysical surveys and operation and maintenance of rigs and other drilling related services.

The Albertine Graben (AG), the area running along the entire western border of Uganda has been confirmed to contain commercial oil and gas resources. 87 oil wells have been drilled and there are 21 fields in existence. However, appraisal of the discoveries is still ongoing. Less than 40% of the Albertine Graben has been evaluated.

Box 3: Uganda’s timber industry The nascent timber industry provides a good example of Uganda’s potential and the challenges that remain. The sector has benefited from progressive government decision-making, including allowing access to unused government forestry reserve by commercial cultivators and a government grant scheme for producers. The industry reports a positive relationship with government and with the foreign-owned businesses that have hitherto dominated the sector and which have collaborated with domestic producers on best practices and technology transfer. Uganda is well placed to compete in the region, and is ahead of its potential competitors in specialist products such as telegraph poles. However, there are significant risks, from climate and natural pests or from smuggling (largely from the DRC), that undercut local production, as well as a high barrier to entry for new producers, both in meeting the initial cost of seedlings and in the necessary technical knowledge to compete. The first cohort of new producers is yet to harvest its first crops, which will result in a large ’windfall’ profit. This will test the appropriateness of the tax system as well as the discipline of the producers to re-invest profit into a sustainable sector.

Business Registration •

• •

Company registration is the first step to formalising a business in Uganda and this involves the process of reserving and obtaining approval from the Registrar of Companies for the name of the company. The Uganda Registration Services Bureau (URSB) is mandated by the Registrations Services Act to register all business entities in Uganda. The founder members (subscribers), who can be nominees for the true shareholders, must meet to sign the constitution documents the Memorandum and Articles of Association - in the presence of a witness. The Articles of Association regulate the company's internal management and the rights of its members. The signed Memorandum and Articles, together with various other statutory documents (members, directors, registered office, passport sized photographs and identification documents for the shareholders’ and Directors’ etc.) are submitted to the Registrar of Companies in Kampala. If the Registrar is satisfied with these documents, a certificate of incorporation will be issued which will bring the company into existence. It normally takes about six weeks to form a company from the time the decision is made to set up to the time the company can start to trade, although formation can be completed in a shorter period in certain instances. Stamp duty is 0.5% of the authorised share capital (1.5% for share transfer).

Land for Investment

The Ministry of Lands Housing and Urban Development is mandated “To ensure a rational, sustainable and effective use and management of land and orderly development of urban and rural areas as well as safe, planned and adequate housing for socio-

economic development”. It has two departments that are directly related to land acquisition for investment. • The Department of Land Administration: It is responsible for supervision of land administration institutions and valuation of land and other properties • The Department of Land Registration: It is responsible for issuance of certificates of titles, general conveyance, keeping custody of the national land register, coordination, inspection, monitoring and back-up technical support relating to land registration and acquisition processes Land in Uganda is under four (4) major land tenure systems which may be available for investment purposes. These are

Leasehold tenure

Leasehold tenure is a form of tenure whereby one party grants to another the right to exclusive possession of land for a specified period, usually in exchange for the payment of rent. The longest lease term is 99 years .

Free hold land tenure •

This tenure derives its legality from the Constitution and the written law. Freehold tenure may involve either a grant of land in perpetuity, or for a lesser specified time period. Only citizens of Uganda are entitled to own land under freehold tenure. Noncitizens may lease it for a period up to 99 years.

Mailo Land tenure •

Mailo tenure is almost identical to freehold tenure. Registered land can be held in perpetuity and a Mailo owner is entitled to enjoy all the powers of a freehold owner

Customary tenure •

In some places the land is held communally, in some it belongs to a particular clan while in others it is held by individuals. The rules of customary law also vary in different parts of the country. A Land Registrar in the OSC is always at hand to guide and facilitate investors on land leasing and registration requirements during the land acquisition procedures More Information on acquisition of land for investment is available on the website: www.mlhud.go.ug

Foreign Control

Distribution & Sales Channels

Limits on Foreign Control and Right to Private Ownership and Establishment Ugandan law allows for 100 percent foreign-owned businesses and foreign businesses are allowed to partner with Ugandans without restrictions.

Products in Uganda are generally distributed through regional wholesalers, who in turn supply small and rural shopkeepers. Consumer goods typically arrive in bulk containers at the informal market area on Nakivubo Road in Kampala and are sold wholesale to traders.

The Petroleum Act of 2013, however, requires goods and services in the petroleum industry that are not available in Uganda to be delivered via a joint venture with a Ugandan company (defined as at least 51 percent of the company being owned by Ugandan citizens) which must have at least a 48 percent share of the company.

Uganda Imports

Imports in Uganda increased to 456.60 USD Million in September 2015 from 447.70 USD Million in August of 2016. Imports in Uganda averaged 256.14 USD Million from 1993 until 2016, reaching an all time high of 672.80 USD Million in December of 2015 and a record low of 44.20 USD Million in August of 1993. Uganda mostly imports oil (24 percent of total imports) followed by pharmaceutical products and capital goods. Top Import Origins: Kenya, UAE, China and India.

Uganda Exports

Exports in Uganda increased to 243.58 USD Million in October from 234.22 USD Million in September of 2016. Exports in Uganda averaged 116.10 USD Million from 1993 until 2016 reaching an all time high of 264.39 USD Million in May of 2013 and a record low of 12.39 USD Million in July of 1993. Uganda Exports Notes: Uganda mostly exports agricultural products (80% of total exports). The most important exports is coffee (22% of total exports) followed by tea, cotton, copper, oil and fish. Top Export Destinations: Sudan (15%), Kenya (10%), DR Congo, Netherlands, Germany, South Africa and UAE. Source: www.tradingeconomics. com/uganda/exports

Trade Regulations, Customs, & Standards

Import Tariff Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi have adopted a three-tiered duty structure for imports from outside the East Africa Customs Union (EACU) under the terms of an East African Community (EAC) agreement, which became fully operational in January 2010. Most finished products are subject to a 25 percent duty, while intermediate products face a 10 percent levy. Raw materials and capital goods may still enter duty free.

Prohibited & Restricted Imports The following items cannot be imported into Uganda: • Pornographic materials • Used motor vehicle tires • Used computers and appliances • Imports banned under international agreements to which Uganda is signatory (Note: The Uganda Revenue Authority imposes an environmental levy on vehicles over eight years old, and the Ugandan government has banned the importation of used computers and used refrigerators.)

Industrial Promotion In addition to tax incentives, Uganda offers investment incentives for investors in four “priority” sectors: information and communication technology; tourism; value-added agriculture; and value-added investments in mineral extraction. Investors in priority sectors can get a 49-year lease in an industrial park without paying the usual USD 80,000 lease fee. The Namanve Industrial Park on the outskirts of Kampala has several large international companies already operating, although the development of the park has been slowed by squatters and inadequate infrastructure. The park is divided into four main industrial clusters: food processing, light industry and services, heavy industry, and another for SMEs.

UNLOCKING OPPORTUNITIES

Uganda has some market-based economy rich in natural resources with one of the fastest growing populations in the world. With comparative advantages in agriculture and one of the largest oil reserves in the region, Uganda is seeing increasing interest among foreign investors. More international companies are investing in Uganda and setting up local and regional operations to take advantage of Uganda’s economic growth potential.

UGANDAUganda has been consistently attracting the highest foreign direct investment (FDI) in East Africa by attracting between $250 – 300 million in FDI annually between 2010 and 2016 – largely due to its stable and consistent macro-economic policies, liberalized business environment, proximity as a logistics hub within the Great Lakes region and increased regional trade.

According to the Uganda Bureau of Statistics, Uganda’s 2015/2016 gross domestic product (GDP) was $23.1 billion (assuming a UGX 3650 to $1 exchange rate), with GDP per capita of $754. The Ugandan economy grew by 0.8 percent in in the second quarter of 2016/2017, after achieving 4.8 percent growth in FY 2015/2016. The Government of Uganda (GOU) predicts that economic growth will drop to 4 percent in FY 2017/18 due to global macroeconomic factors and a sluggish recovery from the national elections in 2016. The GOU projects medium term growth for an average of 6 percent over the next five years, though the GOU’s projection assumes a timely implementation of several complex multi-billiondollar infrastructure projects in that timeframe.

Most FDI into Uganda has been directed towards telecommunications, real estate, banking, insurance, petroleum sector, energy, mining and agro-export sectors.

In 2015, total trade was $8.8 billion, with $2.7 billion worth of exports, and $5.6 billion worth of imports. In 2015, Uganda’s trade deficit was $2.9 billion, a 15 percent reduction from the previous year. Wholesale and retail trade contributed 12.2 percent of GDP.

BEST FOR BUSINESS

The service sector was the largest contributor to GDP in 2015/2016 at 48.7 percent and industry contributed about 19.8 percent. In the same year, agriculture and fishing sectors constituted 23.6 percent of Uganda’s GDP and employed approximately 66 percent of Uganda’s population. In 2015, of the 37.5 million people living in Uganda, 20.8 percent of the population lived on less than $2 per day.

Box 1: Case study – Delight Ltd Delight Ltd is a juice manufacturer which has grown out of a business started in 1996 by a single individual with just $100 in capital, trading across the Uganda–Kenya border. It now employs 450 people and works with 2,000 out-growers. Delight has its own farm of 1,000 acres, including 800 acres of mango, and has plans to build a processing plant. It expanded into South Sudan, and ran a substantial operation in Juba including a shop and bakery, built using a loan taken out in 2008, at 28 per cent interest. The company was getting 60 per cent of its income from South Sudan before the outbreak of conflict there, and it was obliged to sell its buildings to repay the loan. Delight is currently working on a project to use mango-growing as a resettlement strategy for people displaced by past conflict in northern Uganda. Delight set up a nursery to propagate seedlings, then got a contract from the government agricultural extension service to supply these to northern Uganda. It is working with 2,300 farmers, clustered into saving groups, saving an average of USh 1,000 per person per week. Once the orchards mature, in 2018, Delight plans to build a processing plant for fresh juice. But finding finance for the plant is proving difficult, and the business needs to bridge the ‘quality gap’ to meet international standards. For Delight, this includes work on handling, transport, storage, processing, packaging and distribution.
