Celebrating and Rewarding the People Behind Our Performance

CBL Rewards Q4 staff

At Crown Beverages Limited, performance is often reflected in numbers, targets and market outcomes. However, behind every result are individuals who consistently go the extra mile, solve problems and remain committed even under pressure. Recognising these efforts is just as important as celebrating the outcomes themselves because it reinforces the behaviours that drive long term success.

In Q4 2025, it was inspiring to see teams and individuals step up across the business. From driving strong commercial growth and delivering against targets, to improving operational efficiency, solving technical challenges and strengthening quality standards, these contributions demonstrate what it takes to keep the business moving forward in a demanding environment.

A special recognition goes to **Kato Katwire Makyetero**, our Director’s Circle Champion for 2025. His dedication to quality and continuous improvement played a critical role in enhancing product standards and resolving key process challenges. His work reflects consistency, ownership and leadership in action, setting a strong example for the wider team.

We also recognise our Q4 Star, **Hakim Prince Omakwa**, whose outstanding commercial performance stood out during the quarter. By delivering strong growth and exceeding targets, he demonstrated focus, accountability and the ability to execute effectively in a competitive market.

Our runners up, including **James Munyampaka**, equally embody the spirit of commitment and resilience. Their efforts, often behind the scenes, ensure that operations run smoothly and that the business continues to meet its goals even during peak periods.

At Crown Beverages Limited, recognising employees in this way is not only about appreciation. It is a deliberate effort to build a culture where excellence is visible, rewarded and replicated. By celebrating individuals who demonstrate ownership, innovation and teamwork, the organisation reinforces the values that define how work gets done every day.

This kind of recognition also strengthens engagement across teams. It creates a sense of pride, motivates others to perform at a higher level and reminds everyone that their contribution matters. In a fast paced and competitive environment, it is this collective commitment that drives sustainable growth.

We also commend the Human Resource team for championing this initiative and ensuring that excellence does not go unnoticed. Creating platforms that celebrate performance is essential in building a strong, motivated and aligned workforce.

To all the winners and runners up, your contribution sets the standard. You inspire your colleagues and demonstrate that strong results are built by people who take ownership and consistently deliver beyond expectation.

Because ultimately, success is not only measured by what we achieve, but by the people who make it possible.
