Investor Details Founded: 2015
Ashish Monpara, born on September 7, 1982, in India, is a prominent businessman and the chairman of Modern Group, a diversified conglomerate headquartered in Jinja, Uganda. After completing his MBA in Mumbai, India, and Switzerland, Monpara relocated to Uganda in 2015. He founded Modern Distillers Ltd., marking the beginning of Modern Group's expansion into various industries, including sugar production, tile manufacturing, aluminum profiling, gas production, and organic fertilizer. Under his leadership, Modern Group has grown to encompass multiple companies with investments exceeding $700 million, creating over 13,000 direct and indirect jobs. Monpara's strategic vision has been recognized globally; in September 2025, he was named Global Leader of the Year at the 26th edition of the Asian Business and Social Forum in Dubai for his contributions to industrial growth and investment promotion in Uganda. His commitment to Uganda's economic development is further demonstrated by the establishment of the revamped Kaliro Sugar Factory in August 2025, which significantly increased local sugar production capacity and created additional employment opportunities. Monpara's investments have not only bolstered Uganda's industrial sector but have also positioned Modern Group as a key player in the East African market, with plans for further expansion into sectors such as pharmaceuticals and steel production.
