The young start-up changing the face of Uganda’s automotive industry

In recent years, Uganda has witnessed a wave of technological innovation. In a country where access to traditional infrastructure and services can be limited, technology is emerging as a powerful catalyst for change, offering solutions to longstanding socio-economic issues.

AutoFore attended GITEX Africa at the end of May. It is a leading automotive aftersales support platform, aimed at supporting the development of sustainable, environmentally friendly automotive businesses, while providing decent employment opportunities. With a stated aim of transforming mobility in Africa through technology and skilled labour, AutoFore’s innovative solutions are reshaping the industry.
