Summary:
Egypt participated in the World Health Exhibition (WHX) in Johannesburg, South Africa, through an initiative organized by its Trade Representation Office in Pretoria. The primary goal was to boost Egyptian exports of medical devices and supplies and to open new markets in the African continent. This participation aligns with directives from Dr. Mohamed Farid Saleh, Minister of Investment and Foreign Trade, to enhance Egyptian exports and expand into African markets. The exhibition featured around 600 exhibitors from 60 countries and over 10,000 visitors, covering various medical fields including diagnostics, imaging, lab technology, and digital health.
Egyptian efforts focused on connecting its companies with key South African importers and distributors through direct meetings and a round table discussion with the Gauteng Economic Development Agency. The strategy aims to leverage South Africa as a gateway for Egyptian medical products into other Southern African markets such as Namibia, Botswana, and Lesotho. Dr. Abdel Aziz El Sherif, Head of the Trade Representation Agency, emphasized diversifying Egyptian exports. The Pretoria office will continue to follow up on these engagements to convert them into concrete export contracts and partnerships, thereby strengthening the presence of Egyptian medical products in the region.
