Electra Mining Botswana

News
Now in its fourth edition, Botswana’s leading mining, industrial and power generation expo returns in September together with the recently launched A-OSH Expo Botswana.
Taking place at the Gaborone Fairgrounds from 10-12 September, this event will showcase the latest technologies, machinery, products and solutions related to mining, industrial and power generation, as well as all issues associated with occupational health and safety. As a forum for trading, networking, learning and product sourcing, the co-located events will provide an excellent opportunity for local and international exhibitors, industry associations, government officials and industry professionals to connect.
“A-OSH Expo Botswana is an ideal vehicle to promote occupational health and safety in Botswana,” says Specialised Exhibitions Montgomery portfolio director, Charlene Hefer.
“In addition to new products and live demonstrations, a full programme of free seminars will also take place. With local and international participants and leading brands on show, Electra Mining Botswana and A-OSH Botswana Expo will be of benefit to exhibitors who want to expand their footprint in Botswana and also to visitors who want to source the latest products and services and to learn about new technologies and solutions.”
Hefer adds that the benefits extend beyond the exhibitors and visitors. The positive impact of these events in Botswana is that they will be contributing in the region of eight million Pula to the national economy, either directly or indirectly. This is through venue expenses, expenditure on products and services, advertising and promotion, logistics, travel, accommodation, meals and drinks, the spend of exhibitors on exhibiting, and the additional local spend of visitors and exhibitors whilst at the trade show. The exhibition also contributes to part-time job creation during the show and add-on tourism for those visiting Botswana. Electra Mining Botswana is endorsed by the Botswana Chamber of Mines, the Botswana Institution of Engineers (BIE), and the South African Capital Equipment Export Council (SACEEC).
