Retail Industry Leadership and Advocacy

Retail Industry Leadership and Advocacy

As the retail industry’s advocate in Uganda, URWA is a trusted source dedicated to telling the retail industry’s story and informing policy makers and lawmakers of the impact and consequences of the decisions they make.

On the retail operations side, URWA provides a forum where members can conduct discussions aimed at understanding common operational practices, areas of concern, and pragmatic solutions to problems. And our educational events are second to none.

URWA is expected to grow in future years despite several challenges. We will attribute this growth to three core principles:

• We are Member Driven: Our board drives the organization, and senior executives on our councils and committees help set our priorities;
• Service is our Culture: Serving our members is our primary focus; and
• Educate. Innovate. Advocate. : We give equal emphasis to public policy, retail operations and education.

This focus and dedication to member service will be the keystone of our success and will continue to be our driving force.
