Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>President Museveni yesterday officially opened Uganda Trade Hub known as Uganda Connect in Serbia\u2019s capital of Belgrade.<\/p>\n

The hub is aimed at strengthening the bilateral relations between Uganda and Serbia and paving the way for the country\u2019s goods and services in the Balkans region.<\/p>\n

President Museveni, who is on a two-day official visit to Serbia, thanked his host, President Aleksandar Vucic and his government, for giving Uganda a chance to promote her exports in the European country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s some amount of drinking coffee in Serbia and in this part of the world; Russia and other places so we want to promote our coffee to come here processed. They have agreed to buy our processed coffee,\u201d President Museveni said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to inform you that as Uganda we have started to open doors for our exports. Unlike some Western powers who want to buy our raw materials, Serbia has allowed, and they are ready to buy our processed goods such as coffee, clothes, food and leather among others,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

President Museveni also explained that the hub was very vital in promoting Uganda\u2019s exports as it will be used to put together a contact point \u201cfrom where you can get what all you need and all the linkages. The hub makes the address simpler for anybody looking for anything to buy from Uganda\u201d.<\/p>\n

He expressed gratitude to the people of Uganda, the Presidential Advisory Committee on Exports and Industrial Development (PACEID) team led by Mr Odrek Rwabwogo and other stakeholders for playing an important role that has enabled Uganda to achieve this milestone of promoting its agricultural products in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you so much. This milestone can also help us spread our wings to other parts of the world. We should utilise this chance because we shall be able to get 40 USD from a kilogram of processed coffee. A kilogram of unprocessed coffee is sold at only $2.5 (about Shs9,000), do you see how we have been making losses? This is the fight I\u2019m in now,\u201d President Museveni said.<\/p>\n

He also commended Uganda\u2019s trade representative in Serbia, Mr Bratislav Stoiljkovic, for working hard to open a new trade and investment bridge between the two countries.<\/p>\n
