Meet the Visionary Behind Tafari Engineering
Brian Osende Mw’Afrika, an engineer and innovator, founded Tafari Engineering in response to Uganda’s growing housing crisis. With population growth outpacing traditional construction methods, he envisioned a new path — one grounded in sustainability, modularity, and affordability. Today, Tafari is building that vision into homes, walls, and communities.
“We don’t just build structures — we build futures.”
