imbabwe is looking for Indonesian trade partners to supply goods to the country and develop their small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
Zimbabwe Minister of State for Bulawayo Provincial Affairs Eunice Nomthandazo Moyo said she had invited with her four SMEs to find Indonesian trade partners. She also wants the companies to learn about exports from Indonesian SMEs.
"Trade can bring employment to our country and we are interested in how Indonesia develops their SMEs to make exports," she told The Jakarta Post at 31st Indonesia Trade Expo in Kemayoran, Jakarta, on Wednesday.
Indonesian textiles have attracted traders from Africa, who specifically shop for textiles at Tanah Abang Market in Jakarta.
As the minister did not travel with a large delegation, she will collect contact information from exhibitors and purchase samples. Back in her country, she will show the goods to local traders.
"Our local companies can follow up the business opportunities through Skype or email," Moyo said.
Zimbabwe is a southern African country with a population of more than 14 million people. (evi)
