Uganda opened its first armored vehicle showroom through a deal between the United Arab Emirates Streit Group and National Enterprise Corporation. The military set up this showroom at Abayita Ababiri along Entebbe Road. Defence Minister Oleru Abason said it will help people share knowledge and work together. She called it proof that the government supports business partnerships that create new ideas and help the economy grow.
Streit Group Chairman Guerman Goutorov stressed Uganda needs protection as it develops. He invited everyone to visit and learn about these vehicles. NEC Managing Director Lt. Gen. James Mugira thanked Streit Group for supporting this project. The two groups signed their agreement in July 2019. This deal led to a factory in Nakasongola that President Museveni launched in 2022.
The showroom gives Ugandans a chance to see military vehicles up close. People can learn how these machines work when they visit. The display shows what the partnership between foreign companies and local military business units can create. Visitors can ask questions about different models and their features. This marks a new step for defense technology access in the country.
