Equity Bank, in partnership with the Confederation of Indian Industries (CII), today officially kicked off the India-Uganda Trade Mission in Kampala.

The trade mission focuses on key sectors including health, information technology, agriculture, energy, roads and transport, tourism, real estate and defence – industries critical to Uganda’s development and India’s expertise. The mission aims to foster new partnerships, increase investment, and enhance trade cooperation between India and Uganda.

Through a series of business-to-business meetings, panel discussions, visits to select industries and networking opportunities, participants from both countries will have the chance to engage in meaningful exchanges that could drive technological innovations, investment flows and sustainable growth. At the opening ceremony of the trade mission, Equity Bank Uganda Managing Director, Anthony Kituuka expressed delight in hosting this important event, which aims to connect Uganda and India for exploring investment opportunities and fostering long-term business partnerships.

“Equity Bank is committed to promoting the socio-economic prosperity of the people of Africa, and we are excited to create a platform that facilitates networking, benchmarks business opportunities, and provides valuable market intelligence, which are essential elements for driving growth and success in Uganda and the East African region. We believe this inaugural trade mission will inspire the Indian private sector players to explore Uganda’s untapped opportunities, which Equity Bank has experienced firsthand,” said Kituuka.

Adding, “The India-Uganda Trade Mission is about supporting our people for the common cause of transforming their lives and livelihoods and propelling the African continent towards greater prosperity. There is no better force for changing Africa than the business community. These are the people who organise our resources, take risks to deliver products and services to consumers and in the process, create wealth which is the real cure for African challenges.  is wealth creation. So, when we assembled in Kampala to expand opportunities for wealth creation, we are on course to change the destiny of our people. It is only through collaborations and partnerships that we progress and take Uganda to the next level.”

The trade mission aligns with Equity Group’s “Africa Resilience and Recovery Plan’ (ARRP), an initiative aimed at accelerating the continent’s recovery by targeting sectors that will drive economic growth and foster resilience against global headwinds. The pillars include food and agriculture, extractives, manufacturing and logistics, trade, investments, supporting Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), social and environmental transformation, and technology-enabled ecosystems. Through the ARRP Plan, Equity Group has allocated $65 billion to support and empower the private sector and business community in developing and expanding their operations across the East African region and beyond.The Indian High Commissioner to Uganda, Upender Singh Rawat, said, “The India-Uganda Trade Mission represents a tremendous opportunity for both countries. By harnessing our combined strengths, we are opening new avenues for trade and investment that will create lasting economic impact.”

India is one of Uganda’s top trade partners, and the India-Uganda Trade Mission will build on this foundation by identifying new areas for collaboration. The event will provide a strategic platform for Ugandan businesses to tap into Indian markets and for Indian investors to explore Uganda’s growing opportunities.
