“At Double Q, we understand that our customers’ needs are unique and diverse. That’s why we have curated these three models to cater to different industries and applications —from construction to logistics, agriculture to mining, we have a Sinotruk model that is tailored to meet your specific needs,” Richard Musani; Head of Marketing at Double Q told the press during the launch that was held at Double Q head offices in Busega.

Tang Wenjum, Country Manager of Sino Truck International Group in Uganda, highlighted the growing demand for construction and logistics equipment. Uganda’s ambitious construction projects have created a robust need for reliable, high-performance vehicles to support the transportation of materials and equipment. Sino Truck’s new offerings aim to bridge this gap and position itself as a key enabler in the construction and logistics sectors for the country’s evolving infrastructure needs.

Speaking on behalf of the Minister of Works and Transport, Hon. Gen. Katumba Wamala, Kajuna, the Director of Transport in the Ministry of Works and Transport, highlighted this development’s significance for Uganda’s economy and infrastructure. “This occasion reflects the progress the government is making, including partnerships that support the development of Uganda’s transport and construction sectors, which are key drivers of our national agenda,” he said. “The introduction of new models of Sino trucks in Uganda is poised to transform the transport and logistics landscape, creating jobs, boosting local capacity, and contributing to the national economy.”

The new Sino truck models; Howo Max Tractor, Howo NX Cargo, and Howo M7 Light Cargo have been designed with Uganda’s unique terrain and requirements in mind —and they feature reduced emissions and advanced safety features, which align with the country’s national sustainability goals.

Kajuna urged Double Q to place a strong emphasis on vehicle safety and driver training. The emphasis on sustainability and safety aligns with Uganda’s broader goals of modernizing its infrastructure and ensuring the welfare of its citizens. “Vehicle safety is of paramount importance to the government,” he told the press on the sidelines of the launch event, encouraging the company to integrate advanced safety features and provide training clinics for drivers and operators. These efforts, he said, would not only enhance road safety but also help reduce costs for vehicle operators.

The training clinic programs aim to equip drivers and operators with the skills needed to navigate advanced Sino trucks, integrate new technologies, and ensure optimal vehicle use. By fostering education and innovation, Double Q contributes to a safer, more efficient transportation ecosystem in Uganda, heralding a promising future for the sector.

The new Sino trucks, unlike secondhand alternatives, represent a step toward modernization and sustainability. With this venture, Double Q is set to enhance accessibility to quality goods and services while promoting the use of advanced technology in Uganda’s transport sector. The Ministry has encouraged Ugandans to support this initiative by purchasing these products.

Meanwhile, the event also marked a significant milestone, showcasing Uganda’s commitment to fostering a business-friendly environment that attracts investors and supports economic growth.

By celebrating such advancements, Uganda underscores its readiness to embrace modern solutions that drive progress.

A key highlight of Double Q’s initiative is the establishment of an assembly plant in Masaka. This development aligns with the government’s emphasis on standard compliance and directly contributes to local job creation and economic empowerment.

Concluding the ceremony, Kajuna reflected on the broader implications of the launch. “The launch of new Sino trucks in Uganda is not just a celebration—it is a celebration of Uganda’s potential for growth and development.
