PREPARATIONS are well underway for the seventh edition of the Ondangwa SME Expo and Colour Party, which is expected to take place this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The expo is slated for 20 September to 1 October 2024 at the Ondangwa Trade Fair Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Event organizer Jackson Da Silva said this is a youth event held annually with the aim of giving the youth a platform to create their own income through the sale of their products and services.<\/p>\n\n\n

According to Da Silva, they have various exhibition stalls ranging from food and beverages, traditional arts and crafts, fashion design, and fruit and vegetables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have provided a platform for our SMEs, who are selling second-hand clothes, traditional products, plants, and fashion designs, to mention a few, and they will be exhibiting for free,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added that they have made about 30 stalls available for free, which are limited and will be handed out on a first-come, first-served basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He stressed that the idea is to create a platform for young people, as they do not want people to venture only into alcohol sales but to take up opportunities in various business ventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, Da Silva indicated that there will be live performances and a Miss Ondangwa Youth Expo to keep exhibitors and visitors entertained during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The expo is organized by Da Silva Events & Promotions CC, with sponsorship from Top Score, J\u00e4germeister, and Coca-Cola.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
