‘Zim, DRC businesses must ride on trade policies’

FOREIGN Affairs and International Trade permanent secretary Albert Chimbindi has urged Zimbabwean and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) businesses to ride on bilateral trade policies between two countries and build sustainable partnerships as well as harnessing economic potential for mutual growth.

Speaking at the Zimbabwe-DRC business forum hosted by ZimTrade recently, Chimbindi noted that the trade figures between the two countries were not pleasing despite an uptick.

“As Zimbabwe, we have implemented policies and measures to support trade, including trade facilitation programmes, special economic zones and investment promotion,” he said.
