The event, now in its third edition, aims to promote innovation and sustainability within the local business community.
Organized by Debra Kisongoch, the trade fair provides a platform for networking and sales opportunities for the participating enterprises. Radio station 102.2Mhz Lubao also made a mark at the event by aligning itself with local SMEs and engaging with its wide fanbase.
