Africa has many business opportunities but it is a continent that spans far and wide, and with that brings challenges of reach. Conferences such as Africa Energy Indaba serve to ease some of these challenges by connecting South African businesses with other African entities.
The 2019 Africa Energy Indaba was held in Johannesburg at the Sandton ICC from 19 to 20 February. Representing Aberdare was our Export sales team.
The team enjoyed a successful event with meetings and discussions with potential clients. The team is now following up on the many leads brought back.
