This volume includes a range of government reports related to trade and commerce in Uganda dated between 1910 to 1961. From 1901 until 1909, the whole of the customs collected at Mombasa was appropriated to the East Africa Protectorate. Thereafter, Uganda received her share and in 1912 established her own customs department, where the Director of Customs was responsible for preparing an annual trade report. In 1917, the customs departments of the two territories were amalgamated, and the Chief Commissioner of Customs at Mombasa publishing until 1948 an Annual Trade Report for Kenya and Uganda. The trade reports for 1910/11, 1916/17 and 1922-1948 are included in this collection. In 1951, the Uganda Government established a Department of Commerce, which in 1954 changed its name to the Department of Trade. In 1958, the department was integrated into the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, these records are also included. In 1946, following the report in 1944 of W.K.H. Campbell (who had been League of Nations advisor on cooperation), legislation on developing cooperative societies for the marketing of crops was enacted; the first Annual Report was published a year later.
