Who We Are

Uganda National Association of Builders, Suppliers and Engineering Contractors (UNABSEC) - formerly the Uganda National Association of Building and Civil Engineering Contractors (UNABCEC) is a non-profit, member-driven, national trade association representing over 457 genuine contractors and other companies engaged in construction contracting in Uganda.

Since 1993, UNABSEC has made great strides in improving performance in the Construction Contracting Sector by championing better regulation, promoting compliance among her members, and enhancing operational integrity within the construction industry.
