Preparations for the Business Exposition, which opens tomorrow, are underway at the Sophia Exhibition Centre with the stationary stalls receiving a fresh coat of paint and pavilions to house several booths being set up to facilitate those businesses that will be showcased.
Yesterday, Stabroek News spoke with Ray Rahaman of Rent-A-Tent, who was on site overseeing the assembly of one of the larger non-stationary pavilions that will be capable of housing over 70 booths for small businesses showcasing their goods and services.
He said that this year’s idea of local Business Expo could give smaller businesses the much needed venue to showcase what Guyanese entrepreneurship is all about.
The Institute of Private Enterprise Development Limited (IPED) is slated to be housed in a pavilion alongside businesses displaying processed foods.
