The "Africa Free Trade Expo", also known as the AfCFTA Expo, is an annual event held at the Vodacom World Conference Centre in Midrand, South Africa. This city is strategically located between Johannesburg and Pretoria, making it the ideal venue for the expo dedicated to promoting intra-African trade and supporting the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). This project is crucial for the economic growth and international integration of the continent.
Organized by the Africa Free Trade Advisory, the AfCFTA Expo attracts industry experts, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and investors who focus on topics such as trade facilitation, infrastructure development, industrialization, support for SMEs, digitalization, and sustainable development. Their goal is to develop viable strategies to eliminate trade barriers, strengthen local production and processing, and effectively use digital platforms for expanded market access.
The expo serves as a platform for showcasing new products and services that aim to enhance trade flows and economic cooperation between African countries. It also acts as a central hub for discussions on key infrastructure projects essential for the economic connectivity of the continent.
Highlights of the fair include various seminars, workshops, and conferences that address economic integration, entrepreneurship, and trade strategies. These interactive formats offer unparalleled opportunities for networking and further education.
Participants and exhibitors come from diverse sectors such as transportation, energy, IT, and manufacturing, making the event a multidisciplinary and intersectoral occasion. It primarily attracts professionals and decision-makers directly involved in the promotion and implementation of trade initiatives.
Finally, the Vodacom World Conference Centre, with its modern facilities and central location, provides ideal conditions for an event of this size and significance. It is easily accessible via major traffic routes and public transportation, supporting the expo's goal of serving as a hub for innovation and economic growth in Africa.
