Sandton Convention Centre will host this year’s South African Industrial Expo as it is scheduled to get underway next week.
Hosted by Golden Bridge Expo South Africa, the expo will run for three days, from December 5 until the seventh and it aims to focus on industrialisation.
Per a report carried out by IOL, the exhibition portfolios include agricultural machinery, automobile, motorcycle parts & accessories, CNC machinery, construction & decoration, engineering & construction machinery, hardware & tools, health & medicine, industrial equipment & components, and power equipment.
According to the publication, Golden Bridge Expo South Africa general manager Yousuf Fa said more than 70 top industrial Chinese manufacturers and suppliers would take part in this event.
“The expo will also accommodate local companies who will present their products and will have an opportunity to link to potential overseas buyers. We expect more South African enterprises to join us in the future,” Yousuf said.
Fa added that this year’s exhibitors came mainly from Shandong province and Henan province in China as the two major provinces in China’s machinery and equipment manufacturing industry.
“International exhibition is an effective platform to link the host country with the world. We believe, and we have confidence, that our South Africa International Industrial Expo does contribute to economic and trading improvement in South Africa. Together, growing industries,” he said.
In addition, Small Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA) information officer Chumisa Majavu praised the expo as an opportunity to give Seda’s clients exposure.
“It will help them network and showcase their businesses,” she said.
