(Posted 22nd July 2014)

Organized by the Private Sector Federation of Rwanda is the 17th edition of the Rwanda International Trade Show going underway tomorrow in Kigali’s Gikondo Expo Grounds. From the 23rd of July until the 06th of August will over 330 exhibitors from 15 countries exhibit their products and showcase their services. Participating countries reach as far as the UAE, Iran, Pakistan, India, Malaysia and Singapore with many more from the African continent. The number of stands, compared to last year, went up due to a rise in demand from around 400 to over 700, reflecting how trade and industry rank the Kigali trade show.

Key organizers remain the PSF Rwanda and the Ministry of Commerce and the main sponsors again include RwandAir, the Rwanda Development Board, all three telecommunications companies Airtel, MTN and TIGO, leading banks and insurance companies, all keen to present themselves to the expected 250.000+ visitors to the showground in their Sunday best.

Regional hotel companies will reportedly also exhibit, aimed at attracting business from fellow East African Community member states and beyond.
