Sadc pushes for bloc’s industrialisation

Countries in the Southern African Development Community (Sadc) bloc have resolved to develop strategies aimed at attracting foreign direct investments required to accelerate industrialisation in the region.

The resolution came at last week’s Sadc Industrialisation Week hosted by the Confederation of Zimbabwe Industries (CZI) in collaboration with the Zimbabwean government, Sadc secretariat and Sadc Business Council.

The call for a conducive environment was one of the 12 resolutions of the six-day Industrialisation Week, last Thursday, that then ended the following day.
