TRADERS in traditional products are making use of various exhibition platforms with the hope of attracting the attention of potential local and international customers.
Albertina Amunime (25) is one of them. She runs the Nanyalo Trading CC that specializes in the marketing of traditional food and a variety of locally produced items.
She said that business has been slow since the outbreak of the coronavirus.
She added that her participation at the Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair is meant to promote traditional products, food and culture.
“Many of us were badly affected by the outbreak of coronavirus.
Amunime said that Nanyalo Trading is a regular OATF PARTICIPANT.
“We exhibit our products and generate income from the sale of food,” she said.
This year’s OATF attracted a total of 380 exhibitors. Of those figures, 18 of the exhibitors came from South Africa, Ghana, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Kenya and Japan.
