The British Chamber of Commerce Uganda launches in Tanqueray Cocktail experience

Promoting better trade links between the UK and Uganda

The British Chamber of Commerce Uganda (BCCU) has officially been launched in Uganda in a cocktail experience curated by Tanqueray Gin at the British High Commissioner’s residence in Nakasero last evening.

The invite-only launch kicked off with an interactive quiz and a raffle, bringing together reputable business leadership, government officials and community members while they delighted in an array of cocktails featuring both Tanqueray Dry Gin and the zesty Flor de Sevilla variant.

The British Chamber of Commerce aims to promote better trade links between the UK and Uganda to increase trade and investment while providing a range of business support and trade promotion services.

Speaking at the launch, H.E. Kate Airey OBE, the British High Commissioner to Uganda said, “As the economy and investment environment becomes more difficult, there is need to strengthen our community in order to succeed. Therefore, I am delighted to launch the British Chamber of Commerce Uganda as a platform to strengthen the trade and investment relationship between the UK and Uganda”.

Currently operating in a number of other African countries, the chamber is dedicated to helping UK businesses in Ugandan of all sizes to prosper. Members of the chamber will have access to exclusive benefits that include connections to government and private sector organisations in the UK and Uganda, invitations to networking events, access to trade delegations supported by the chamber and more.
