    I am still waiting to see the abroad food that we don't have in Kampala , but waappii, just the branding. But all these things abroad we have in kampala and they are more organic.

    Boni is indeed a Belgian brand.
    I’ll definitely need to visit that store.
    Funny thing is: they sell it as a renowned brand. But Boni is in fact the house brand of Colruyt, a Belgian low cost supermarket.
    Definitely very okay, but not what a Belgian would call a top of the line brand. They’re the cheap option in Belgium.

      @@cultivatingwellness4028 it’s not poor quality, just not a luxury brand. I use it all the time in Belgium.
      I actually visited Le Gourmet yesterday. Beautiful store that feels very premium (as do the prices). But in Belgium you get the same products for a fraction of the price. Definitely nice as a Belgian in Uganda to go to once in a while to eat Belgian products, but too expensive for daily shopping.

    Very cool. The price difference between local produce and imports always amaze me in Africa. 1 kg of prime cut beef for about US$ 10. Meat is 5-6x more expensive in my country. But the imported food is very expensive like in Kenya.

      Just 'coz any ol' Indian "investor" slaps a "Supermarket" label on his store don't mean it is one.
