Freedom City Mall in Entebbe city

Freedom City shopping and leisure center
Most people have come to hear about you after you embarked on the colossal Freedom City project on Entebbe Road. How did you come up with that?
Upon returning in the property business in the late 2000s, I found that the prices of property downtown Kampala had skyrocketed. There was a lot of confusion downtown as well. So, I decided to do something different.
A couple of years ago, I had admired Garden City mall and wished to own a complex like that one day.
So, here I was toying with the idea of a modern shopping and leisure centre out of town. I decided on it and started looking for land outside town.
I landed on 3.5 acres of prime land at Najjanankumbi on Entebbe Road. I acquired it from Buganda Land Board at $1m and started constructing Freedom City.
This project looks massive. How much do you estimate its total cost will be upon completion?
We expect it to consume over $20m (about sh45b). I think the cost would have been higher if I didn’t own a construction firm. I am my own contractor. I also procure my own materials — everything from sand to metal panels. I own a mine, where I get all the sand I use on the project.
So, how big is Freedom City?
At some point I had thought of it being a hotel, but changed my mind. I have not entirely dropped the hotel idea though. The project covers pretty much all the 3.5 acres except for some space behind, which I have reserved for the hotel.
The mall itself, which is four storeys for now, boasts over 8,000 square metres of retail shopping space (the largest of these being a really big supermarket), a banking area (already six major bank branches are operational here) as well as big brand coffee shops, cinema area, a recreation area and health clubs among other key features.
