Expo 2012 to showcase export capabilities

The mega international exhibition Expo 2012 scheduled to be held for three days from March 28 will showcase Sri Lanka's export capabilities.

We are working towards a successful exhibition and are pleased with the outcome so far. "We are in the process of registering Sri Lankan exporters in every product and service category," Sri Lanka Export Development Board Chairman and CEO Janaka Ratnayake told the Daily News Business.

The EDB conducted numerous promotional events in other countries including road shows which attracted many trading partners, investors and international tour operators. The road shows were conducted in the Middle East, UK, Europe, Canada, Korea, Japan and also many promotional events in Australia and South Africa, he said. These activities have generated enthusiasm and are encouraging responses and potential investors are looking at Sri Lanka in a positive manner for doing business and for travel.

We were successful in building contacts with many distribution channels all around the world to promote trade and commerce in our country. We are positive that we could attract prospective buyers and trading partners in thousands and also a large number of investors, he said.

With the prevailing stable economic and political stability and peace we need to promote Sri Lanka as an economic power. This collective effort will lead the country in becoming a developed country at the end of a decade supported by rapid economic growth and accelerated development, Ratnayake said.
