Container conversions · Kampala, Uganda
We turn shipping containers into homes, offices, clinics, cold rooms and shops. Designed in Kampala, built at our Bugolobi yard, delivered by road across East and Central Africa.
What we do
A shipping container is a structural steel frame that has already survived the ocean. We cut, insulate, line and finish it into a space people are proud to live and work in, in weeks rather than months.

What we build
Every build starts from a standard 20ft or 40ft unit and is designed to your specification: single or double storey, lined, insulated and wired.

Cutting, welding, insulation, lining, electrics and finishes at the Bugolobi yard, in your brand colours.
Workshop build
Road transport by our in-house division, crane placement, erection and commissioning on site.
Anywhere by roadWhy containers
Corten steel, a rigid frame and standard dimensions mean every unit is strong, stackable and transportable before we have touched it.
Two-high stackingSite build
Workshop fabrication runs in parallel with site preparation. Units arrive finished, not as materials.
Move the building when you move the business. We relocate units as a standard part of the service.
Designed to carry cargo across oceans, a container shrugs off weather, pests and rough handling.
Every build reuses a decommissioned unit. Solar power, rainwater harvesting and efficient insulation are available options.
A fixed scope built off-site keeps costs predictable, from a single storage box to a high-spec bespoke conversion.
Where we deliver
Our in-house transport division handles domestic and cross-border freight so units arrive without damage and on schedule.
