CCM president Álvaro Massingue described the fare as an opportunity for members and representatives of local SMEs to showcase their products in highlighted markets, seek opportunities and new strategies for technology transfer in agro-processing, and forge ‘win-win’ connections for Mozambique.
“It is a privilege for our Chamber of Commerce to be here in Lahore. Our members need these opportunities to stay motivated. Pakistan’s unconditional support shows that we have great potential to grow in the fields of healthcare and engineering. We also have other interests, regarding the acquisition of machinery for different sectors, such as agriculture,” said Massingue.
