About A One
Ugandan stationery, made in Kampala since our first exercise book
A One Manufacturing Industry Limited makes educational materials, office supplies and paper products for Uganda and East Africa.

Our story
From a small workshop to one of Uganda's trusted stationery makers
A One was founded to give Ugandans quality stationery and office supplies made at home. Over more than 16 years of manufacturing, and over 20 years of combined industry experience, we have grown from a small operation into a manufacturer and supplier serving schools, businesses, government institutions and individuals.
Today our factory makes exercise books, paper products and classroom equipment in-house, and our shop at A One Plaza on Nasser Road sells the full range at factory-direct prices.
