What’s new in African Trade?
2010 sees Africa welcome the first ever FIFA Soccer World Cup event to the Continent, and to South African in particular. Infrastructure and industrial development projects in the majority of African countries are still driven by international funding and investment institutions, as Africa remains the focus of international development corporations, contractors, tourists and local developers alike.
