Doing business in Uganda and Rwanda

In the last decade Uganda experienced an average economic growth of about 5%. Being one of the leading destinations for Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) in the East African Community, Uganda offers ample economic and business opportunities. A stable macro-economic policy, a growing internal market and accessible regional markets are elements of a liberal/private market led development policy.

Uganda offers a wide range of business opportunities in many different sectors, combined with a large market size and potential, with (still) limited competition.

Rwanda is placed 56 (out of 183 countries) in the Ease of doing business index of the World Bank and 2nd in Sub-Sahara Africa. Rwanda is one of the most stable countries in the region. The Government of Rwanda is very accessible for meetings to discuss any challenges that companies and investors might encounter in Rwanda.

The Dutch government has made available factsheets on doing business in Uganda and Rwanda.
