Strategy |
For anyone considering doing business in Uganda, think ROKO. Because ROKO has been
building, growing and innovating in this region for almost 3 decades and is today one of
Ugandas leading Construction and Civil Engineering Groups. Senior Directors Max
Rohrer and Rainer Kohler, with 50 years combined experience in Africa, made a commitment
to assist in Ugandas prosperity and development when they founded ROKO in the late
sixties. Together with technical and commercial directors and over 40 qualified civil and
site engineers, Rohrer and Kohler have led ROKO to the forefront of the construction
industry to emerge as the principal contractor in Uganda. | By combining international
expertise with immense local knowledge and experience, ROKO is well qualified to serve the
construction requirements of companies seeking to invest in Ugandas bright future.
ROKO has an unmatched reputation for integrity and reliability, and a commitment to
providing a quality of service that has gained the trust and respect of the Uganda
business community. The company is self-sufficient in the majority of construction
disciplines and provides employment for an average of 1800 people, placing great emphasis
on training its technicians and craftsmen to produce an exceptionally high standard of
workmanship. ROKOs main office and extensive operational base, situated in the
Kawempe district of Kampala, sources and directs its projects throughout Uganda. Materials
are produced locally and from the Preferential Trade Area wherever possible, and imports
are facilitated by ROKOs association with the SAI Trading company in Europe.
In addition to ROKO Construction Limited (RCL) which undertakes building and civil
engineering contracts, ROKO incorporates a Technical Services Division (RTS) which markets
and provides competent after-sales service for quality machinery and specialist equipment.
RTS together with their international technical partners have the knowledge and facilities
to plan, install and commission turnkey projects and integrated supply packages.
Installations have included equipment for stone quarries, coffee factories, maize mills,
salt factories, railway workshops, wood processing plants, communication networks and
ranching schemes. The combined expertise of RCL and RTS has enabled ROKO to become a
leader in quality and service within the industrial development of the country. |
