We’re thrilled to announce a new partnership with De Heus Uganda Ltd, a global leader in animal nutrition, to strengthen Uganda’s fish value chain. This partnership combines De Heus’s expertise in aquaculture and its state-of-the-art aquafeed plant near Jinja with Enabel’s commitment to sustainable development, aiming to address key challenges in the sector.

The partnership will focus on:
· Sustainable raw material procurement: Establishing efficient outgrower schemes, ensuring local farmers benefit directly.
· Youth empowerment: Providing young people with practical skills and employment opportunities within the fish industry.
· Innovative research: Exploring alternative protein sources for fish feed. ·       Green Practices: Promoting operational efficiency processes during feed formulation ensuring sustainable production.
· SME development: Strengthening the capacity of small and medium-sized fish producers to boost competitiveness and unlock growth potential.

Together, Enabel and De Heus aim to create real change in the Busoga region by creating a more resilient and sustainable fish industry that benefits local communities and supports economic growth.

This initiative is part of Enabel’s broader commitment to strengthening Uganda’s fish value chain, including support for reviewing Fisheries and Aquaculture regulations—an essential step toward sustainable fisheries management.
