Ahead Int’l Trade Fair: FOSSCCIMA To Improve Facilities At Boro Park

The leadership of the
Forum of South-South Chamber of Industry, Mines and Agriculture (FOSSCCIMA) has assured that all necessary arrangements were being made towards providing state of the art facilities at the Isaac Boro Park, Venue of the maiden edition of FOSSCIMA International Trade Fair in Port Harcourt.
The President of FOSSCIMA, Billy Harry, who gave this assurance recently in Port Harcourt explained that Boro Park, inspite of the absence of the amenities, had hosted a lot of International Trade Fairs in the past and would remain one of the best venues  because of its strategic position.
“Apart from providing State –of-the Art tents, there would be water, toilet,” he  said, adding that superb security arrangements were also being made to ensure that the fair received the best standard attention obtainable anywhere.
It would be recalled that the Port Harcourt Chamber of Comerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (PHCCIMA) moved the venue of its last trade fair to the Liberation Staduim instead of its usual venue, the Boro Park.
Organisers of the fair said the shift in venue was because of the absence of modern facilities of Boro Park compared to  what obtains at Liberation Stadium.
However, some social commentators are still of the opinion that Boro Park remains the better option considering its central position at the heart of the city.
