About 700 local and 100 foreign exhibitors are participating in this year?s Ghana International Trade Fair, which starts today.

The two-week fair on the theme, ?Networking to unluck Ghana?s trade potentials,? is expected to create the platform for business opportunities for the exhibitors.

Speaking with the paper last Monday, the public relations manager of the Ghana Trade Fair Company, Mr Joe Welsing, said adequate preparations had been made for a successful fair.

Esther Ofori, chief executive officer of the Trade Fair Company, said that measures had been put in pace to ensure adequate security on the fair grounds.
