Low utilisation of the Gulu Logistics Hub
Adopt a time-bound promotional tariff at the Gulu Logistics Hub to establish it as the default route for northbound traffic
Agreed, but implementation has not begun.
Where this stands
Proposed 50% reduction for 12 months, increasing thereafter based on value-added services offered.
Why this reform was agreed
Tariff rates at the Gulu Logistics Hub are uncompetitive against regional alternatives. Elegu, one hour away, charges UGX 10,000 per truck per night for parking while the Gulu Logistics Hub charges UGX 50,000.
Ongoing and planned interventions
URA is piloting Direct Import Zone status for the Gulu Logistics Hub, allowing cargo to bypass Kampala for clearance and reducing the storage costs that currently make it more expensive than the Elegu border.
