Jayant Madhvani

Published in 1973, this memorial volume gathers biographical essays and tributes to Jayant Madhvani (1922-1971), the Ugandan industrialist who headed the Madhvani Group after the death of his father, Muljibhai. Contributors follow his training in the family sugar and trading concerns at Kakira, the widening of the businesses into textiles, beer, and other East African industries, and his work in the Legislative Council for commercial education. The pieces record household, firms, and civic obligations rather than a plotted private drama. The book is a commemorative portrait of a businessman and public man, assembled by family and associates after his death.
