At a brief opening, the Chief Executive Officer of Ghana Trade Fair Company, Dr. Agnes Adu led a delegation to tour the various exhibition Stands. She commended the GSA for offering free services to shippers after a brief interaction with officials of the GSA who were at the Stand during her tour. “This is a government Agency providing free services to shippers and stakeholders in the industry, and they are here at the Trade Fair to advertise the services they offer.
We need to commend them for the work they are doing because it goes a long way to ensure trade facilitation, which is one of the objectives of the Trade Fair.”, she noted.
