Mathias Kasamba, the East African Member of Parliament representing Uganda, says the market is among government initiatives to encourage the private sector to engage in gainful trade and investments. The market will enable Ugandan traders to break into the EAC and COMESA markets.  

The market will be constructed by the Rural United Business Association Network (RUSBA) Ltd and Degitech Energy Company Ltd from the Republic of South Africa.
