UFVEPA presents its new five-year strategic plan

The Uganda Fruits and Vegetables Exporters and Producers Association (UFVEPA) is the largest association in Uganda’s horticultural sector, representing 50+ export companies and producer group members. For UFVEPA, this strategic planning exercise, supported by COLEACP, came just at the right time, at the end of the former strategic plan (2015-2020) and when exporters and producers are grappling with the effects of the COVID-19 virus. With the uncertainties posed by the pandemic, a clear strategic roadmap over the next five years is vital to help steer the association through this difficult period and support the revival of the horticultural sector. Through the strategic planning process, management gets a lens on both the internal and external environments that are likely to affect the association.
