Alfasan Uganda Limited
Today, I was travelling from Kampala to Mukono. My last time to use this route was in 2016. I was impressed by the new development of Namanve Industrial and Business Park. Even though, I was using public means ("Taxi"/"Matatu"), I managed to spot out some agribusiness companies but I was more attracted by one of the roofing labelled "Alfasan Uganda, Veterinary Medicines".
Alfasan Uganda is managed by one of the prominent agripreneur, Dr. Stephen Birungi. I got to know him through Africa Agribusiness Academy's events. He once tipped me 10US dollar for the good work I do in agribusiness sector! Something I found surprising because "Tipping" is not a common culture in Uganda, and doing it in US dollar currency and not Ugandan Shillings made it more interesting.
