|September 15, 2025
SOUTH African companies who were part of the 30-member business delegation showcasing their products and services at the Intra-Africa Trade Fair (IATF) held in Algeria have said that they are looking forward to doing business in Algeria and the rest of the continent.
This comes after generating many promising trade leads during the fair last week.
Dr Khulile Mtsetfwa, CEO of Swatek Defence and Aerospace, stated on Friday that the company signed three memoranda of understanding focusing on distribution lines in Algeria.
The company specialises in the design and manufacture of quality wiring harness, military dashboards, battery boxes, dashboard test bench and providing innovative electrical solutions to defence, aerospace, aviation, rail and automotive sectors.
“The plan is to make sure that we build relations and maintain the line of communication with country agents and distributors in order to penetrate the Algerian market and the rest of the continent,’ said Mtsetfwa.
