Tissues Factory (AAA) in Nalukolongo, which focuses on paper recycling and the production of premium tissues and serviettes under the Maxisoft brand. This initiative not only enhances our product offerings but also aligns with our dedication to environmentally responsible practices.
A significant milestone in our expansion is the launch of our innovative edible oil refinery at the Namanve Industrial Business Park. This advanced facility specializes in producing essential household products, including premium cooking oil, bar soap, baker’s fats (margarine), and plastics. Our refinery stands as a testament to our commitment to upholding the highest standards of quality and safety, solidifying our role as a key provider of essential goods in the region.
At Ntake Bakery & Company Ltd, our commitment to excellence, innovation, and sustainability is more than just a philosophy—it is a way of life. We strive to deliver superior products and services that not only meet but exceed the expectations of our customers, partners, and stakeholders.
