KAMPALA – In a bid to add value to the country’s vast agricultural produce and increase farmers incomes, Tycoon Hamis Kiggundu known for his vast real estate holdings in the country among other businesses, is putting up one of the most advanced agro-processing plants in the country.
This plant which will cost about 440 billion to set up according to Kiggundu will serve as a model factory for a project he plans to roll out across the country based on agricultural zoning.



While the plant will process and add value to various crops from across the board ranging from fruits, vegetables, cereals and other plants for both local consumption and export, Kiggundu plans to build more specialised processing plants in the major agricultural zones across the country going forward.
Tourism Potential
Beyond the agricultural processing and products that will be coming from the factory, this factory is also coming up with a new first in its administration block.
According to the Master plan of this vast processing complex located on Entebbe road in Akright estates, it’s administration block will be a unique one designed as a replica of the White House.

Going Nationwide
When the Entebbe road-based Industrial complex is done and dusted, Kiggundu plans to roll out similar value addition processing plants in the various regions of the country.
With each region having specialised plants and factories to add value to what is produced in that region for example milk and meat processing units in Mbarara and Karamoja sub-region, maize and sugar mills in the Hoima Masindi region, another plant in West Nile and the North, Eastern and Central.
