Uganda courts Egypt with coffee, tea, and tourism

Ugandan officials have launched a major initiative to promote their nation's tourism and agricultural products within Egypt. The event, held at Cairo's Royal Maxim Palace Kempinski, aims to attract Egyptian tourists while expanding the market for Ugandan coffee and tea. Ambassador Charles Angina, addressing hundreds of attendees, emphasized the country's natural attractions and investment potential.

Egypt, with its large population, is viewed as a promising consumer market and a source of high-end travelers. The Ugandan Embassy, collaborating with its agriculture and tourism boards, is leveraging cordial bilateral relations to increase commerce. Presidential advisor Mostafa El Gendy acknowledged Uganda's welcoming stance toward foreign investment.

Trade between the two countries currently favors Egypt, though Ugandan exports are experiencing significant annual growth. The embassy plans to make this expo an annual occurrence, using it as a platform for business-to-business meetings intended to forge new export partnerships.
