Cuban Traders to Panama Fair
About 70 Cuban businesspeople are due to travel to Panama on Monday to attend the international multi-sector trade fair Expocomer 2007, slated for March 7-10 in that Central American nation.

Cuba s Chamber of Commerce (CCC) president Raul Becerra Egaña told Prensa Latina that the island s products will be promoted in this exhibition.

Businesspeople from over 30 countries are expected to take part in this show, organized by Panama s Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture, in which Cuba is due to exhibit an extensive spectrum of its main products and commercial achievements.

The island s delegation will also participate in two important events in the framework of the fair: a forum of the Caribbean Association of Industry and Commerce and a bid for works in the Panama Canal Zone.

Becerra told that Cuba will also be present in the Fair of Cochabamba, Bolivia in April, another on agriculture in Colombia, and attend an annual meeting of the Caribbean Council of Industry and Commerce in Trinidad and Tobago in May.

The aim of the CCC is to satisfy the extensive demand of services and develop a more active trade negotiation to favor its members.
