Bugambe Tea Estate is located in the newly created district of Kikuube in the gentle hills along the Western Rift Valley. The Estate has two divisions: Nyamarobyo and Buseruka comprising tea fields, eucalyptus plantations, natural forests and all the relevant infrastructure spread across 1573.17 hectares.
With Kisaru becoming independent — in terms of manufacturing their own leaf — Bugambe has increased extension services to Out-growers.
Harvesting of leaf solely depends on shears and SOH machines where 2,897,762 kilograms of made tea produced in 2022 out of which 465,182kgs came from out growers.
