The Company says it wants to employ 100% Ugandan people within 3 years after the completion of the Eden Uganda project.

According to Eden, the project involves “building a community for the local people,” creating jobs, boosting the local economy, and increasing the quality of life. 

“This community will include infrastructures such as research labs, pharmacies, and an airport.” 

It is also projected that this venture will increase the GDP of Uganda by 3%. A documentary showcasing the land in Uganda entitled "The Garden of Africa" is currently in production.
