Uganda gains several advantages from the EAC common market:

  • Free movement of goods, making trade easier and cheaper.
  • Larger regional market for Ugandan products like maize, sugar, and manufactured items.
  • Free movement of people, allowing Ugandans to work across the region.
  • Attraction of foreign investors who see the whole EAC as one big market.
  • Reduced trade barriers, meaning lower costs and faster cross-border movement.

Overall, the common market boosts exports, jobs, and investment.
