About Simba Group

From connecting a single Ugandan with our first mobile phone, to powering cities and shaping industries – Simba Group is a story of vision, grit, and the unshakable belief that Africa’s tomorrow will be greater than today. It all began with a dream in 1998. Patrick and Carol Bitature founded Simba Telecom, entering into an exclusive partnership with MTN Uganda, which had just launched. What started as one small retail shop soon became a revolution — within six months, Simba signed up more Ugandans to MTN than the competition had in four years. From the outset, Simba Telecom was about more than selling airtime. It was about giving ordinary Ugandans the power to connect with loved ones, do business, and dream bigger. This moment marked the birth of the Simba Group.
