Kakira Sugar Limited (KSL) is one of the oldest sugar milling companies in Uganda and the flagship enterprise of the Madhvani Group. Established by Muljibhai Prabhudas Madhvani (14th May 1894 – 11th July 1958), the company was first set up in 1930, with the capacity to crush 150 tonnes of cane per day. A man of great vision, Muljibhai arrived in Jinja as a young teenager to join an uncle in business. With little more than determination and an outgoing personality, he soon set up his own trading concern – his first step into a business that would later expand and diversify to account for 10% of Uganda’s GDP.
