Kampala Industrial and Business Park (KIBP), also referred to as Kampala Business and Industrial Park or Kampala Industrial Park, is an industrial and business park in Uganda. The park was developed by the Uganda Investment Authority, as a central place where investors can locate factories, warehouses, distribution centers and other business offices.
KIBP is located in Namanve, Kira Municipality, Wakiso District. This location is approximately 15 kilometres (9.3 mi), by road, east of the central business district of Kampala, Uganda's capital and largest city, on the Kampala-Jinja Highway. The coordinates of Kampala Business and Industrial Park are:0°20'35.0"N, 32°41'55.0"E (Latitude:0.343050; Longitude:32.698600).
The industrial park was created by act of parliament in 1997. An area measuring 894 acres (362 ha), previously occupied by a national eucalyptus forest was de-gazetted for that purpose. Over 200 businesses acquired land and space on concessional terms, to establish their businesses in the new business park. Roofings Limited, a manufacturer of galvanized iron bars, wires and sheets began production in September 2010, at a new factory called Roofings Rolling Mills Limited, located in the business park.
