In May 1960 the first “Central Africa Trade Fair” was launched in this site that has been used as a venue for trade and/or agricultural shows since 1899.
The Zimbabwe International Trade Fair is the largest intra-regional trade fair South of the Sahara.
An annual exhibition which offers exposure to both trade and public visitors, the multi-sectoral, multi-national expo provides the largest, most convenient trade hub in the region. Its location in Bulawayo, the centre of Southern Africa, is at the crossroads of the regional trade and transportation routes.
Its extensive, 17-hectare permanent exhibition centre offers over 58 000 sq.m of developed exhibition space.
ZITF and the specialised exhibitions hosted annually at the Zimbabwe International Exhibition Centre provide ideal venues at which to meet the deal-makers and the new industrialists first-hand.
