Buyanja Savings and credit Cooperative Society Ltd (BUSACCO) was established way back in 2002 with a group of women who formed the then Buyanja Women Savings and Credit Cooperative Society Ltd.

These women had come together as a community to do projects that would liberate them from poverty and empower them financially. Among the projects they started with was a poultry project.

Later on, men came on board and it was officially registered as Buyanja Cooperative Savings and Credit Society Ltd on the 3^rd Day of December 2002 with registration No. 6614.

As time went on, the poultry project became unmanageable because being communally owned, and management had to concentrate on savings and credit. Since 2002, the SACCO had expanded and grown by leaps and bounds, encountering several challenges but has strived for its development to be what a well positioned and staffed SACCO it is now
