Impact of Urban Flooding on Businesses in Kampala
REFNo: SS4689ES
This study examines how extreme rainfall and recurring urban flooding disrupt firms in Kampala and what these disruptions may imply for long-term firm growth. The focus is on medium- to large-sized firms in the manufacturing, wholesale, and retail sectors operating in urban areas. The study aims to document firms’ exposure to flooding and characterises the frequency and duration of flood-related interruptions. It identifies the main channels through which flooding affects business activity, including direct disruptions at business premises and indirect disruptions transmitted through reduced urban connectivity that constrains access to workers, customers, suppliers, and road network. The study also examines how firms perceive flood risk, whether these perceptions influence location and planning decisions, and which coping and adaptation strategies firms adopt to maintain operational continuity. In doing so, it provides evidence on the patterns of firm vulnerability and resilience to flooding in Kampala and generates inputs that can support the design of targeted urban resilience and private sector support policies.
