EXPORT READY
Existing exporters constantly face a number of 'perils' including custom bureaucracy; unstable foreign currencies; corruption; outstanding payments and a host of other issues. Exporters need to ensure that strategies are regularly rearranged to stay abreast with the latest regulations and requirements.
Quality standards imposed on exporters, although imperative, have resulted in many "wanne-be" exporters reconsidering export options.
The FDA (FOUNDATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AFRICA) will be presenting a FDA FORMAL NETWORKING FUNCTION on EXPORT MATTERS early in 2005.
Herewith some 'export contacts' that may be useful in your export efforts:
