ADDIS ABABA – The Addis Chamber plans to host three international trade shows as its President Mesenbet Shenkute urged local businesses to make the most of the events.
The three trade fairs – flagship events in the Addis chamber’s portfolio, bring together traders, manufacturers, and producers from various corners of the world to the capital annually to showcase their products and services.
The President of the Addis Chamber has called on the business community to attend the events either to learn from the experiences of participating international companies or form a business network.
This year, the Addis Chamber will first host the 14th edition of the International Agriculture and Food Trade Fair for three days, starting from December 7, 2023.
It will be followed by the Addis Chamber International Trade Fair (ACITF).
The 26th edition of the ACITF will be held fifteen days from February 22, 2024.
The third event scheduled this year is the sixth edition of the Addis Chamber International Manufacturing and Technology Trade Fair or MATEX Ethiopia.
The five-day event is scheduled for May 23-27, 2024.
Addis Chamber says it is well prepared to host the trade fairs expected to attract many manufacturing companies, tech solutions services providers, traders, importers and more.
Mesenbet expects the events to serve as platforms to promote investment opportunities and trade access to the Ethiopian market.
Addis Chamber, which has over 17,000 members, is the largest and oldest chamber of commerce in the country.
