According to Zimbabwean trade development and promotion agency ZimTrade, total exports this year should surpass the 10 percent target enunciated in the National Export Strategy riding on the country's successful participation at Expo 2020 Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The expo, which began in October last year ended on March 31, 2022. Zimbabwe was among 191 other countries showcasing at the multi-sectoral fair. Under the Second Republic, the country has, among other things, prioritized the growth and development of an export-led economy as it moves towards attaining an upper middle income society by 2030.
ZimTrade chief executive officer Allan Majuru said the trade body organised the Zimbabwe-Dubai Business Forum earlier this year, which ran on the sidelines of Dubai 2020 Expo and complemented the efforts of the Zimbabwe Pavilion in increasing the visibility of local products and services.
