— Emmanuel Bahindi, Founder & CEO
Born in Kyegegwa District to a mother with a serious mental illness, Emmanuel was raised by his elderly grandmother from three months old. She fed him mashed Irish potatoes mixed with milk — not tradition, but all she could afford.
Despite everything, Emmanuel became the top student in his rural community. A HESFB government loan took him to Makerere University to study Software Engineering. He survived on Kikomando in a leaking room in Nakulabye and coded his first software contract for UGX 600,000.
After founding COTE TECH (U) Ltd, he did what no one expected — he returned to Kyegegwa. Armed with digital farmer profiling, professional grading standards, and above-market pricing, he built what no supply chain had ever offered those farmers: dignity. POVU Coffee was born.
