Welcome to Uganda Funeral Services

Uganda Funeral Services Ltd (UFS) is a Private limited Company registered in 1996 and domiciled in Uganda. It is located on Plot 80A Old Kiira Road Bukoto (Head office) with branches on 6th Street Plot 2 Industrial Area – Masaka on Grant Street Byansi Building Complex – and in Mbarara on Plot 1 Mclister Road.

Uganda Funeral Services ("The Company") is the pioneer and still the leading professional funeral directing Company in Uganda. We are also the sole distributors of caskets and coffins in the great lakes region.

The company currently employs over 60 professional staff in its various departments both in Kampala and at its branches.

Having researched in, and travelled widely though several developed countries where we witnessed meticulous burial arrangements, the founders of the company namely the late Fred Katamba an ex-seminarian with the Consolata missionaries and a professional lawyer together with his sister Regina Mukiibi a professional banker and former employee with Uganda Commercial Bank felt that Uganda should not lag behind in this regard since these services were not only desirable but also necessary.

We noted with concern that there was a yarning gap in the public health sector where both Nationals and Non-nationals lacked sensitization about the need, and had no access to the hygienic, professional, and modern funeral management services. Thus deeply touched and challenged, we resolved to train in funeral management so as to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to undertake this uphill task. We purchased state of the art equipment and launched the services in Uganda in 1997.A fleet of hearses, caskets, coffins, sailors (lowering devices); Church trolleys, ash urns and other funeral wares were imported. The company also trained other funeral directors, embalmers, counselors and pallbearers to mention but a few.
