Indian Trade Fair offers new dimensions for business

by Pelham Juriansz

The Federation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry of Sri Lanka (FCCISL) and the Sri Lanka Exhibition and Convention Centre (SLECC) will conduct the Indian Trade Fair 2003 from October 8-12 at the SLECC. The event is being conducted for the fifth successive year.

Launched in 1999, the Indian Trade Fair has had a high level of participation from all over India, resulting in the establishment of a large number of business links between the two countries, complementing the Indo-Lanka Free Trade Agreement.

This year's event is set to render a whole new perspective of business opportunities and will bring together importers, distributors, traders and manufacturers from all over India. It will be a venue for interaction among different sectors, a catalyst for growth across the country. About 100 exhibitors will display their items in 120 to 150 stalls.

Some of the products on show will be automobile components and spares, agricultural implements and inputs, building materials, ceramics, chemicals, glassware, computer software and education, consumer durables and non-durables, cosmetics and toiletries, engineering products and machine tools, sports goods and accessories.

Nihal Abeysekera, President FCCISL said that India is our closest neighbour and trading partner.

"Those in the industry of machine tools will benefit a great deal. New players have come into the market since this exhibition began," he said.

V. Raman, representative from Kontak Exhibitions and Fairs, said the automobile industry and pharmaceuticals will gain the most as they are fast growing segments. All new products will be presented at this exhibition.
