Jumia Travel Uganda has launched a new travel agency, signaling a desire to win over Ugandan travellers who are not online by setting up a physical office in Kampala. The physical premises, according to Jumia Travel Country Manager Timothy Mugume are designed to tap into the significant market of Ugandans who do not have access to the internet.

“We have a very strong presence online, however we would like to be all inclusive and provide our services to the customers who are not online, and build them up to embrace it. Only less than 25% of Ugandans have access to internet or services, and our target market lies here too,” Mr. Mugume said.
