The hospitality sector accounts for 90% of all employment and this has made UHOA a force to reckon with in Uganda. It also gives me great pleasure to note that of the 3,800 hotels in Uganda, 95% are privately owned of which 86% are Ugandan owned. It gives me greathonour to lead a sector that is driven by some of the most patriotic ladies and gentlemen in Uganda
During the course of the years, we have also seen the opening up of international big-name brand hotels in Uganda, most notably the Hilton Hotel, Onomo Hotels, Hilton Garden Inn, Marriot Hotels, Latitude Hotels, all of which are members of UHOA. This comes with a lot of benefits for our country in terms of tax collection as well as employment of the youth. Also, this is an endorsement of the international business community and a sign of investor confidence that Uganda is officially open for business.
Susan Muhwezi – Chairlady

We are truly honoured to see our association grow in numbers and strength every year. We are honoured to see a changing skyline of the hotel sector in Uganda. We have international brand name hotels opening up in the next couple of years. We are proud to have welcomed Latitude Hotel, Hilton Garden Inn and Skyz Marriot hotel as part of the international chain hotels calling Uganda home.
We encourage many hotel investors to come and join us here in the Pearl of Africa. Our country offers a very conducive business environm
