Terry Gale, chairman of the Exporters’ Club Western Cape, said in view of the current global supply chain challenges, the event would provide a platform for new business opportunities, including an update on the AfCFTA agreement, and explore opportunities of using Hong Kong as a gateway into the GBA and mainland China.

Guest speakers include Wrenelle Stander, Erica Joubert and Karen Bosman from Wesgro, Trudi Hartzenberg from Tralac, and Conrad Hendry from the Hong Kong Trade Development Corporation.
