The 28th Uganda International Trade Fair ended on a high note, with the major activity being the quick sales of final touches. Manufacturers in the multipurpose hall say they secured a lot of deals and reaped profits out of the trade fair, helping them recover from the effects of Covid-19. Gerald Watongo, who works as a business developer for Bancassurance at Diamond Trust Bank, said the trade has enabled the business to move smoothly getting up to 50 customers a day. “The turn-up has been massive. We have got several customers who have opened up accounts and now we are to do follow-ups as this is done. Many have been interested more in having financial literacy. It has been worth it,” said Rwatamo. Like Wantongo, Jackeline Nasseje a beverage manufacturer said the business has earned her profits but asked management to take the trade fair on bigger open grounds next year to hinder the failures of numerous customers to reach the stalls. The exhibition space sizes looked small from three feet spaces and small exhibitors shared exhibition tables. Others were in small cubicles, large rooms, and open spaces out of buildings, mainly for those that had automotive equipment.
