The Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry, represented by the Sharjah Exports Development Centre, has launched a trade mission to Uganda and Kenya, running from November 11th to 14th.
The mission, led by Chairman Abdallah Sultan Al Owais, aims to strengthen bilateral trade ties between the UAE and East Africa, focusing on sectors such as oil, construction, logistics, and food.
The delegation’s first stop in Kenya includes an investment forum with workshops and panel discussions on investment opportunities.
This is followed by a series of one-on-one meetings to foster business partnerships between Emirati and Kenyan entrepreneurs.
The mission then moves to Uganda, where an investment forum will explore growth in the infrastructure and oil sectors, followed by site visits to local companies.
This mission highlights the growing economic cooperation between the UAE and East African nations, with non-oil trade between the UAE and Kenya reaching over $3 billion in 2023 and trade with Uganda expanding dramatically in recent years.
