Orders worth millions expected at Canadian expo
By our correspondent

KARACHI: The launch of a bilateral trade event in Toronto, the Canada-Pakistan Trade Expo, is believed to begin a new era of trade and cooperation between the two countries.

The exhibition, which is the first of its kind, started on July 8 and would end on July 12. Trade Development Authority of Pakistan Chief Executive Mohibullah Shah and Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry President Sultan Ahmad Chawla jointly inaugurated the exhibition at the Congress Centre of Toronto the other day, according to a statement issued by the FPCCI on Friday.

“This is the first-ever bilateral trade event in the continent, which is devoted to Pakistani exporters and manufacturers to help them make inroads into the Canadian market and explore its potential to the maximum extent,” the statement said.

Addressing the inaugural ceremony, Gerry Philip, Chair of Cabinet in the Canadian Ministry, stressed the need of organising such events and exchange of trade delegations between the two countries.

“Pakistani community is playing an important role in promotion of economic and friendly relations between the two countries,” he added.

“About 124,730 Pakistanis are living in Canada, who would like to see their home products in Canada,” an exporter commented.

The exhibition, which is being held with the support of the Pakistan Consulate General, has more than 70 stalls of different Pakistan-made products. The attractive displays are inviting Canadian buyers and visitors, who are expected to place millions of dollars worth of import orders.
