Kigali: The 12th Exhibition of Egyptian Products in progress at Kigali’s Petit Stade de Remera from 13 to 30 December 2019 has the distinction of offering quality products in comparison with previous editions, according to Ashraf Mahmoud, Founder of Smart Egypt, and one of the organizers of the 12th Exhibition.
“Fifty Exhibitors presented products of high quality at Petit Stade. The Exhibition takes place three times a year and aims to improve the relations, cooperation and trade between Rwanda and Egypt. Since Egypt started organizing Trade Exhibition in Rwanda, there has been a growing enthusiasm for products made in Egypt, a country that stands out for the performance of its cities which are home to most of the country’s major industries ”, Ashraf Mahmoud said.
He added that a large number of Rwandans buy these products made of household materials such as stoves, fridges, products made from leather such as shoes, belts, bags and jackets, shirts, suits, jeans. But you can also see attractive jewelry, earrings, chains and rings among others.
The suits from Egypt and Turkey remain of high quality with affordable prices varying from Rwf.75,000 to Rwf.120,000 or Rwf. 200,000. Toilet soaps, perfumes of various kinds, carpets of various dimensions, clothes for ladies and children. Everything is there to satisfy the tastes of the public at the end of year celebrations.
But there are also products from South India made from various medicinal herbs. There are also very pleasant lounge chairs. Everything deserves to be seen even and appreciated, if one cannot buy now.
The Intel’l Products Leather Company belonging to Emad Eissa, present at the expo at the expo has a range of products made from leather and textiles such as suits, belts, bags. The Company, like other Exhibitors, displays a great commitment to satisfy a large audience in Kigali.
But what is even more appreciated is the quality of the services provided. Selling certainly, but also knowing how to retain the customers with a smile and kindness and interest them by offering various attractive packages corresponding to their tastes and abilities. This is also a demonstration of professionalism.
The image offered during this exhibition testifies to the good relations between Rwandans and Egyptians. Knowing how to work together and appreciating what is being done and what is on offer augurs well with the Continental Free Trade Area taking root. As an industrialized country, Egypt has the opportunity to showcase its know-how and technology to other countries to learn more and improve. (End)
