Our Story

Founded in 2009 in the heart of Kampala, Uganda, akent.shop began as a small, family Partnership Business operated by Mr. and Mrs. Kabagambe. With a shared vision, an entrepreneurial spirit, and a deep commitment to serving their community, they built a store rooted in trust, quality, and personal connection.

What started as a humble retail shop soon grew through consistency, innovation, and the unwavering support of our customers. As shopping needs evolved, so did we. Guided by the Kabagambe family’s passion and forward-thinking leadership, the business transitioned from a local store into a modern online shopping platform—while keeping the same family values at its core.

Today, we are proud to be a full-scale online shopping franchise serving customers across East and Southern Africa.

 Even as we expand, our foundation remains unchanged: delivering exceptional products, personalized service, and a shopping experience that feels like home.
