The evening was capped off with thrilling deejay performances from Dj Dash, the dynamic duo Dj RPM and BK and finally Dj Kampire.
The launch in Uganda was one of many global celebrations spearheaded by Jack Daniels International to celebrate 150 years since the brand’s founder, Jack Daniels was born.
Jack Daniels has been on Ugandan shelves for over a decade in a free market with no official importer and distributor. But at the beginning of this year, Jack Daniels International signed a deal with Grays Uganda Limited to make it the official distributor in Uganda.
