About Lukoye Stores & Contractors Ltd

Lukoye Stores & Contractors Ltd is a Ugandan recycling and construction materials company established in 2012 and based in Nalukolongo Industrial Area, Kampala. The company combines recycling, manufacturing, construction materials and environmental protection to create practical solutions to Uganda's growing waste management challenge.

Lukoye collects waste plastics, polythene, paper, boxes, bottles and other recoverable materials from waste collectors, transporters and other sources. These materials are sorted, cleaned, processed and transformed into useful products.

Our approach is built around a simple principle: Waste can become a resource when the right systems, technology and people come together.

Our Story

Lukoye was established as a business involved in recycling, production and distribution of construction-related materials. Over time, the company recognized that the growth of urban communities, construction activity and consumption was generating increasing quantities of plastic, paper, packaging and construction-related waste.

Rather than seeing this waste only as a challenge, Lukoye began developing ways to recover and transform these materials into useful products. Today, the company is working to strengthen this value chain—from waste collection and sorting to processing, manufacturing and distribution.

Our Objectives

Our work is guided by several key objectives:

  • Expanding our recycled product portfolio.
  • Improving production capacity and efficiency.
  • Maintaining high standards of product quality and customer service.
  • Encouraging innovation and creativity.
  • Developing sustainable waste collection and recycling systems.
  • Supporting local manufacturing and economic opportunities.
  • Contributing to cleaner and healthier communities.
  • Promoting environmental restoration and re-afforestation.

Our Approach

Building a Circular Economy

We believe recycling works best when the entire value chain is connected.

Our model brings together: Waste Generators → Waste Collectors → Transporters → Lukoye Recycling Facility → Manufacturing → Distribution → Customers.

This approach creates value at multiple levels while helping keep recoverable materials within the productive economy.

Our People

Lukoye recognizes that its people are central to achieving its objectives. The company is committed to creating a working environment that promotes professionalism, personal development, responsibility, teamwork and innovation. We also recognize the important role played by women and young people within the waste value chain and seek to promote inclusive opportunities within our activities

Environmental Commitment

Environmental protection is at the heart of our work. By recovering materials that would otherwise be discarded, recycling them and transforming them into useful products, we contribute to reducing waste and promoting more responsible resource use. Our long-term vision also includes re-afforestation and tree-planting initiatives to contribute to environmental restoration.
