A BRIEF HISTORY ABOUT RHA

The Rwanda Hospitality Association (RHA) is one of the six Associations that make up the Chamber of Tourism which is one of the ten professional Chambers that currently exist under the umbrella of the Rwanda Private Sector Federation (PSF).

In 2001, the Rwanda Chamber of Commerce (PSF now) established a framework under which private players in same sectors of operation would align with the Government vision 2020.

A few hoteliers by then across the country convened and formed the Rwanda Hotels, Bars and Restaurants Association (RHRA) which started with a membership composition of 10-20 members by 2002.

In 2012, RHA was published in the national gazette which under PSF and through the Tourism Chamber grants it with the autonomy to advocate and represent members as the overall national trade association.
