Who We Serve

Sectors We Serve

Basket Advisory works across sectors — from agribusiness and fintech to NGOs, manufacturers, and government entities across Uganda and East Africa.

7.3 Million
Informal workers in Uganda
89% of all employment sits outside the formal economy
USD 14.8B+
Uganda's informal economy
largely untraceable, uninsured and unbanked
Basket is built to bring 7.3 million informal workers into the formal economy, moving billions in worker payments onto a traceable, insurable rail.
Formalising those workers reaches an estimated 32 million people in their households, at Uganda's average of 4.4 people per home.
Market figures: Uganda Bureau of Statistics (2024/25) and IMF. Basket's role is the infrastructure to formalise this workforce as we scale; figures describe the opportunity, not completed volumes.
