History
During the 1960s and 1970s, Hirji was a champion automobile racing driver. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, he began trading in textiles and alcoholic beverages from a shop in central Kampala. His first company Dembe Enterprises has since expanded into the Dembe Group of Companies, a conglomerate that includes a radio station, an automobile dealership, a finance and insurance business, an amusement park and the Imperial Hotels Group chain. He also owns the former Uganda Commercial Bank Towers, which he renamed Cham Towers.[2][3]
