Iganga is an important city in Uganda's Eastern Province, located about 80 kilometers east of the capital, Kampala, along the main Kenya-Uganda highway, making it an important transportation and trade node in the East African region. As one of the commercial centers of the Eastern Province, the area around Njeru is rich in crops such as coffee, cotton, and bananas, and the local market is active, with small processing industries and trade in agricultural products supporting the regional economy. With a population of around 150,000, the city is dominated by the Basoga ethnic group, which retains a traditional tribal culture and regularly organizes folklore festivals. Although infrastructure is still being developed, its prime location and agricultural resources make it a key gateway connecting Uganda with its East African neighbors.
