Uganda: Cement manufacturers have lauded the Uganda Revenue Authority's enforcement of digital tax stamps, citing a significant reduction in counterfeit products in the local market. According to the Uganda National Bureau of Standards, counterfeit goods constitute 58% of the market, posing risks to both consumers and the economy.
Edina Agwata, Sales Manager at Simba Cement Uganda said “We have initiated a price reduction in the market, forcing our competitors to also drop their prices. We are focused on making cement affordable to every Ugandan so that they can build their dream home.”
