Uganda continues to register a steady supply of imported used clothes despite a reduction in the percentage due to high taxes and improved local capacity.
In the four years to June 2023, imports of second-hand clothes rose by Shs74.8b, increasing from Shs366.5b in June 2020 to Shs441.3b.
Data contained in the URA Annual Data Book indicates that the value of used clothes stood at 52.2 percent of the total import value for the 2022/23 financial year, which stood at Shs845.3b, compared to Shs441.3b for second clothes.
