Kagame receives UK philanthropist
VILLAGE URUGWIRO - President Paul Kagame Thursday received at Village Urugwiro, Sir Tom Hunter, a Scottish philanthropist working to improve the quality of Rwandan coffee. Speaking to the press shortly after their meeting, Hunter said that he had come to brief the President on the progress registered in the branding of Rwanda’s coffee in the United Kingdom. “We managed to help Rwandan farmers launch a brand of premium coffee in the UK and we have so far helped them launch the brand in 1,000 stores across the United Kingdom,” Hunter said after the meeting.
