Uganda grows some of the finest coffee in the world, but real value is not created at the farm alone. It is built through processing, branding, and positioning products for global markets.
In this insightful Business Recovery Series session by Enterprise Uganda, Martin Nangoli, Founder of Kikobero Coffee Company, shares his journey of transforming coffee from the slopes of Mt. Elgon into a globally recognized export brand.
Martin walks through the coffee value chain—from harvesting and processing to grading, branding, and export—highlighting where entrepreneurs can enter and how they can capture more value. He shares practical lessons from working with smallholder farmers, achieving international quality standards, and exporting to markets such as the United Kingdom.
This session highlights the role of entrepreneurship, innovation, and Business Development Services (BDS) in driving business growth in Uganda, particularly within agribusiness and export sectors.
Through the Business Recovery Series, Enterprise Uganda continues to equip entrepreneurs with the knowledge needed to build competitive, export-ready businesses.
