Batswana entrepreneurs asked to consider Brazil

Russell Dowding, a logistics consultant and owner of Business Solutions Network, was speaking on behalf the Brazilian Embassy in Botswana at the show currently taking place at the Botswana Conference and Exhibition Centre (Fairgrounds) in Gaborone.
"There are a lot of opportunities in Brazil that Botswana can explore," Dowding said. "Our aim is to link investors between the two countries."

He said Brazil was well known for leather shoe manufacturing, which offered Botswana entrepreneurs opportunities to network with willing investors from his country.
"Botswana is rich in cattle, which potentially means it has the best leather products," said Dowding.
