How Global Oil Surge Hits Ugandan Consumer

Agriculture
UNOC’s bulk procurement system and strategic fuel reserves provide some protection against sudden supply disruptions. The company is responsible for bulk petroleum imports and has a mandate to manage storage facilities and strategic reserves, measures intended to strengthen Uganda’s security of supply.

Storage can provide breathing room but it cannot permanently insulate Uganda from international prices.
