Gulu Agricultural Development Company (GADC) is a leading agricultural brand in Uganda, focused on developing sustainable value chains in the post-war areas of Northern Uganda. With a strong emphasis on training and re-training farmers, GADC aims to equip them with the knowledge and practices needed to succeed in agriculture. Originally established in the aftermath of the devastating LRA-instigated war, GADC has expanded its operations to include agricultural buying and processing in cotton, sesame, oil milling, and maize milling.

The company also participates in the chili and sunflower markets, offering a diverse range of products. GADC's products are sold both locally and internationally. What sets GADC apart is its unique field network system, which sources products from over 80,000 smallholder farmers through community-based entrepreneurs known as buying agents.

These agents provide farmers with agricultural extension services and training, covering topics such as agronomy, organic principles, post-harvest handling, and financial literacy. GADC is committed to making a positive impact on the communities it works with, and is open to public-private partnerships to further enhance its sustainable and impactful concepts. As part of its future plans, GADC aims to expand its value-add activities and geographic reach by increasing its sesame and cotton volumes, developing the chili supply chain, and investing in oil milling equipment.

With its focus on training, community engagement, and diverse product range, GADC is dedicated to improving the lives of farmers and the agricultural sector in Northern Uganda
