At Molongi Investments SMC Ltd, our briquettes are more than just a product—they are a solution to urgent problems affecting Uganda today: deforestation, indoor air pollution, poverty, and youth unemployment.
We believe in using local resources to create local impact. Every briquette we produce helps protect forests, improve health, and support livelihoods.
🌍 Environmental Impact
Uganda loses thousands of hectares of forest each year due to charcoal production and firewood use. Our briquettes help turn the tide.
♻️ 30+ tons of agricultural and organic waste transformed into clean fuel
🌳 500+ trees saved from being cut down
💨 Tons of carbon emissions avoided by switching from charcoal to briquettes
We are reducing pressure on forests, cleaning up waste, and contributing to climate action—one briquette at a time.

“Before I found Molongi briquettes, I spent almost half my weekly budget on charcoal. Now, I save money, and I can cook meals for my kids with less smoke and faster heat. My kitchen stays cleaner, and my children cough less. These briquettes changed how I run my home.”
Aisha Mother of Four, Jinja District
“Molongi gave me my first real job. I used to just hang around with no purpose. Now I wake up early to produce briquettes, I’ve learned how to use machines, and I even teach others. I’ve been able to support my younger siblings with school fees.”
Isaac PYouth Team Member, roduction Worker
“Molongi helped me start a small resale business. I buy briquettes in bulk and sell them in my community. It’s helped me earn income as a single mother, and I feel proud to promote a clean product that helps our environment.”
