The Malawi Confederation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry [MCCCI] is planning to host the International Trade Fair this year after cancelling it last year due to the Covid -19 pandemic.

Malawi Confederation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry Head of Business Linkages and Events Linda Pete disclosed this today.

However Pete said that while they are observing the pandemic trends holding this year’s event will depend on the easing of Covid -19 restrictions that are being enforced at the moment.

While acknowledging a  challenging  business environment among  local  producers , President  of the indigenous Business Association of Malawi  [IBAM] Mike  Mlombwa feels the event can wait  up to next year if the environment improves.
