have grown from strength to strength in Uganda and beyond. At the forefront of industrial development
and business, we are now one of the largest diversified private-sector employers in East Africa, employing
over 10,000 people and providing a livelihood and supporting, both directly and indirectly, over 150,000

Despite our diversity and size, our family business continues to be proudly African and we continue to
recognize the key values that have contributed to our success by embracing the stakeholders and
communities in which we operate as our destiny is entwined with theirs. We strive to engage with and
empower these communities and ensure that we may continue to grow hand in hand with them
wherever possible.
Our vision to share our breathtaking country to those from beyond our borders and even to far away
shores led us to acquire and develop what we felt to be locations of outstanding natural beauty. Each of
these properties also represents the combination of the very best of what there is to offer at these
destinations. All of our hospitality properties have been consolidated under Marasa Holdings, and as we
expect to grow, Marasa will be one of the largest providers of high quality, comfortable, charming safari
lodges in East Africa.
