Dear Western Cape Exporter,

About the Event
Africa Day commemorates the founding of the Organisation of African Unity – now known as the African Union – founded on 25 May 1963. Celebrating African unity, Africa Day provides an opportunity to connect with and build strong relationships with key African markets, promoting intra-Africa trade.

Themed Energy Transition for equitable, resilient, and sustainable Africa, the event will bring together Consuls General, Ambassadors, key stakeholders, and business delegations from Western Cape, Kenya, Ghana, and Ivory Coast.
