Cuba, Venezuela and
Bolivia to inaugurate joint trade fair
CUBAN, Venezuelan and Bolivian companies are to
participate in the 1st International Fair of the
Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas (ALBA) and
the People’s Trade Agreement (TCP), set for May 25
and 26 in the Bolivian city of La Paz.
The Ministry of Production and Small Businesses
in Bolivia, which is organizing the event, said that
it would serve for the exchange of information on
supply and demand possibilities in the three
countries and the potentiality of productive sectors,
particularly for micro- and small businesspeople.
According to Prensa Latina, participation is
expected by 25 Bolivian companies and an as yet
unknown number of Cuban and Venezuelan ones, said
Gustavo Barbery, Bolivian deputy minister of trade
and exports.
The fair is framed in the integration agreements
covered by the ALBA and the TCP, signed on April 28
in Havana by Presidents Evo Morales of Bolivia,
Fidel Castro of Cuba and Hugo Chávez of Venezuela.
