Invest in Fort Portal City
Since being officially named Uganda’s Tourism City in July 2020, Fort Portal has drawn growing interest from local and international investors alike, eager to tap into the immense business potential of a genuine tourism hub. Land for business remains comparatively affordable, making now a compelling time to establish a lasting venture here.
Where the Opportunities Lie
- Hospitality and accommodation, hotels, lodges, guest houses, and restaurants
- Tour guiding and travel services
- Agro-processing, tea, coffee, and horticultural value addition
- Craft production and cultural tourism ventures
- Real estate and land development, particularly in growing suburbs like Kagote and Kasusu
- Retail and commercial trade
Uganda’s tourism sector remains the country’s top foreign exchange earner, with international arrivals rising steadily year over year and over 70% of visitors head to Western Uganda, the region richest in the country’s natural tourism destinations. Fort Portal sits right at the center of that opportunity.
