Show Notes
Arriving in Kampala (the capital city of Uganda) one of the first thing people notice are how many motorbikes there are.
It’s the de facto mode of transport for getting taxied around the city, in a place where car congestion is heavy.
Near where I was staying was a showroom for Miracle Motors, a subsidiary of the larger Indian conglomerate Mahindra Group.
After walking in, the head of the office Pankaj agreed to an interview, and we spoke about the many customer types of motorbikes, considerations of importing unfinished goods, and the evolution of the personal transport market in the region.
