It is the main municipal, administrative, and commercial center of Tororo District. There are many shops, banks, supermarkets here. Tororo is a trading hub where many people come from the surrounding villages to work. There are a number of ATM's around town with one at Barclay's accepting all major cards. MTN and Airtel mobile agents are throughout the town. ==History==Tororo was garrisoned by the Uganda Army's Air and Sea Battalion during the Uganda–Tanzania War (1978–79). On 2 March 1979, rebels loyal to Milton Obote attacked the town, whereupon part of the garrison defected while the rest was routed. Tororo was recaptured by the Uganda Army in a counter-attack two days later,{{sfn|Cooper|Fontanellaz|2015|p=62}}[{{cite news| last = Darnton| first = John| title = Amin's Rule in Uganda Imperiled As Tanzanian Force Nears Capital| newspaper = New York Times| date = 5 March 1979| url = https://www.nytimes.com/1979/03/05/archives/amins-rule-in-uganda-imperiled-as-tanzanian-force-nears-capital.html |access-date=22 December 2018 }}]
