Learn More About Kamaala Enterprises
Kamaala Enterprises was founded on the principle of “Sustainability over Profitability” and focuses on organic farming and sustainable manufacturing. Organic farming seeks to create symbiotic relationships with nature and does not allow the use of synthetic chemicals in any stage of the production process. The lack of chemicals allows the business to save significant amounts of money, which is reinvested into employees education, agricultural research and development, and international marketing/networking.
In order to be good environmental leaders and mangers, our company practices the latest “Sustainable Development Goals” put forth by the United Nations and CERES International certification program.
We seek to create partnerships with local entrepreneurs. If we help a family start their own commercial farm or value added business, it not only provides us a long term partner, but helps create high paying local jobs.
Instead of selling one product to one person, we sell them only a portion of each harvest and then use the remaining amount to create value added products. This allows us to not only feed our communities, but create products like “Juice, oil, flour, livestock feed, and even organic compost”, which can be sold locally or exported.
How We Got Started
- In 2016, Julius Kamaala was supposed to attend the “Global Leader Initiative (GLI)” hosted by the United Nations at the United Nations building in New York City. At the time, he was unable to attend and had reached out to then Dr. Sarah Martin who was the program facilitator. This led to Dr. Martin and Julius becoming friends, with her and over a dozen medical professionals traveling to Uganda to create the first private “Chiropractic Medical Facility” in Uganda. Afterwards, she introduced Julius to Ryan Parra. Ryan is an American politician, Activist, and Economic developer. The two then collaborated and created the business in which we host today.
- The company started in first few months of the 2020 year and started as a small two-acre farm in Jinja. Despite the hardship of the pandemic, the business did well and it had saved enough to open a second farm in Bufumbo in partnership with a local farmer and double its current size in Jinja by the end of the year. Several months later, the business opened a six acre farm in Achomai that exported products directly to the European Union. In July 2021, the company was able to host Mr. Parra and two members of his staff. The three spent “26 days” in the country and were able to help make the business more efficient. It should be noted that for the first 18 months of the business’s lifespan: Julius and Ryan had never met in person, and despite this were able to create an entire business though WhatsApp’s messages only!
- After the “July 2021 trip,” the business rapidly expanded to having three additional partnerships, increased manufacturing activities, increased production at its farms, and though its partnership with “Sandia Consultants” was able to secure a trade agreement with a US-business resulting in the sale of (to date) 50 kg monthly of roasted ground coffee.
- The current day business is working on expanding its farms, manufacturing capabilities, and logistical operations in order to be able to secure larger US trade contacts. The company has been offered contracts for “Roast ground coffee, Tea, several manufactured food products, and Consumers/Cosmetic products”.
