Successful global expo winds down

The Expo ended on Saturday with hundreds of visitors thronging the fairgrounds to view exhibitions, make purchases and also indulge in the generous menu of entertainment available. This year's Expo was also bigger and better all round: six thousand visitors were expected up from last year's 4, 709; 250 local and international exhibitors showcased their goods and services up from 160 last year and P60 million in business generated up from P48.6 million last year.

Botswana Export Development and Investment Authority (BEDIA) Communications and Public Relations Deputy Director, Kungo Lentswe said the annual trade event had met the strategic objectives set for it.
