Multinational consumer goods company Unilever has officially appointed Salvo Grima Group as regional distributor for a large range of ambient consumer goods across several regions in Uganda.

This new appointment complements Salvo Grima Group’s existing distribution operation in neighbouring Rwanda, where the Group operates as Unilever’s national distributor, reaching over 7,000 client outlets across the country and exporting also to nearby markets such as Burundi and the Eastern provinces of DRC Congo.

‘We are honoured to be entrusted with this prestigious project by Unilever and we are pleased to extend our reach further into East Africa,” said Group Chief Executive Officer Karl Aquilina. “We are committed to maintaining the world class standards of multinational brands, bringing quality products steadily to consumers in this fast-growing region.”

Salvo Grima Group currently operates in 8 countries in Europe and Africa and specializes in bringing fast-moving consumer goods steadily to emerging markets on behalf of multinational manufacturers.
