Zim eyes Swedish market

ZIMBABWE is mulling plans to start exporting its products to the multi-billion Swedish market to raise more foreign currency to boost the economy.

ZimTrade together with the Swedish Embassy in Zimbabwe and Open Trade Gate Sweden (OTGS), will next month host a one- day seminar on how to export to Sweden.

This comes as the country is importing more than it was exporting with the trade deficit widening to $1,83 billion in the six months to June from $1,76 billion during the same period last year.
