However, meaningful partnerships need to manifest continuously if this realization to be met.”

“With the global pandemic hitting the world, imports from Uganda’s largest business hubs like China, and other trading regions was halted, which set a clear indication that we needed to harness the manufacture of locally made products to meet the market demand, and that includes the clothes we wear, not forgetting other goods and services,” Vivianna added.
