The Uganda Manufacturers Association (UMA) is inviting industry players to join the Petrochemical Raw Materials Dialogue on 14th August, a pivotal event aimed at unlocking new opportunities for sustainable industrial growth.

Why This Matters to Manufacturers
Petrochemical raw materials form the backbone of many manufacturing processes—ranging from plastics and packaging to pharmaceuticals, textiles, and construction materials. Access to reliable, affordable, and high-quality petrochemical inputs is critical for manufacturers looking to boost production efficiency, reduce costs, and compete in both local and global markets.

Engaging the Right Voices
The Dialogue will bring together prominent sector leaders, including policymakers, industry regulators, and private sector stakeholders such as the Uganda National Oil Company (UNOC) and the Petroleum Authority of Uganda (PAU). Manufacturers will have the unique chance to discuss supply chain needs, quality standards, pricing frameworks, and sustainability practices directly with decision-makers.

Key Benefits for Manufacturers Attending

• First-Hand Insights on Uganda’s evolving petrochemical supply chain.
• Direct Engagement with policy leaders shaping the sector’s future.
• Networking Opportunities with potential suppliers and strategic partners.
• Sustainability Strategies to align manufacturing with environmental goals.

A Step Towards Industrial Transformation
With Uganda’s oil and gas sector set to play a central role in the country’s economic development, manufacturers must position themselves early to tap into the benefits of domestically sourced petrochemical products. This Dialogue represents an essential step towards building a self-reliant, sustainable, and competitive industrial sector.

Manufacturers, policymakers, and industry leaders all have a stake in shaping Uganda’s petrochemical future. Your seat at the table on 14th August could define your competitive edge for years to come.
