PHCCIMA Calls For Unification Of Trade Fairs

A Council Member,
Port Harcourt Chamber of Commerce, Industry Mines and Agriculture (PHCCIMA), Surv. Emmanuel Ogbonda, has called for unification of trade fairs in the country.
Ogbonda, who spoke to our correspondent in Port Harcourt recently said trade fairs should not be held simultaneously in zones of the country.
He said such practice would not be good for the economy of the country.
Ogbonda, who is also the director of entrepreneur and sports of PHCCIMA, said such duplications was counterproductive and should be discontinued.
On efforts geared toward harmonizing trade fairs in the country, he said effort were in top gear to remedy the anomaly.
While throwing light on the successes of last year’s international trade fair, he said despite the challenges, the event was successful.
Speaking on the attitude of traders who do not make proper registration for participation on trade fair, he said the chamber was on top of the matter.
