Expo Pakistan 2007, an annual extravaganza of the country's goods and services is being held at the Expo Centre, Karachi, next year from March 29 to April 1. More than 500 Pakistani companies, representing all major sectors of industry and services including manufacturers, retailers, trade associations and commercial service providers will participate in the event.
These companies will set up stalls at the venue to exhibit their products, officials at the Trade and Economic Wing of Pakistan High Commission said on Friday.
Expo Pakistan received an overwhelming response in the previous years and has since become an annual feature providing one stop opportunity for the international trader, manufacturer, businessperson and investor to see for themselves the quality and variety which Pakistan's industry and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) have to offer. Over a thousand international buyers, retailers and investors are expected to visit the forthcoming Expo.
One of the largest delegations to visit Expo Pakistan 2007 will be from the United Kingdom, which will comprise retailers, chain stores representatives, government officials, buying houses, representatives of the trade and industries associations and private businesses. This reflects the interest of the UK business in Pakistan.
"Pakistan is one of the fastest growing economies of Asia. With its competitive costs of production, excellent infrastructure, easy availability of raw material and educated human resource it is now a market to reckon with," said Commercial Secretary Saira Najeeb.
