Women entrepreneurs sharpen agoa readiness

Organised by the American Embassy through the Southern Africa Trade Hub in conjunction with Women in Business Association, the seminar encouraged entrepreneurs to network and use each other's skills in order to better prep their products for the American market.

Entrepreneurs from sectors such as textiles, agribusiness and handicraft were taught the opportunities and challenges of exporting through AGOA, which grants duty and quota-free entry for certain product lines into the US market.
