Century Promotion and Events and Commercial Nominees present their compliments to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and have the honor to present the following to its attention.
Century Promotion and Events, a significant business promotion company that is eying to celebrate its silver jubilee in less than a year time partners with Commercial nominees to introduce “Selam Fasika –Expo, 2023” which will take place from 25th March up to 15th April 2023 @ Addis Ababa Exhibition Center. The 22-day long event coincides with the celebration of Ethiopian Easter, one the most celebrated festival in the country shall be the grandest event that attracts over 20,000 visitors each day.
COVID-19 and the war in the northern parts of Ethiopia have negatively affected the inflow of business and foreign direct investment into the country over the past few years. Now, following the signing of the peace deal, Ethiopia’s attractiveness as a business and investment destination has the potential to revamp. The Trade and Investment Promotion events organized by Century Promotion and Events over the past twenty years have been amongst the venues that attracted hundreds of foreign businesses and investors into the country.
The organizers have prepared to attract a great number of foreign company participants to “Selam Fasika –Expo, 2023” from various parts of the world. We proudly recall the support provided by Ethiopia’s Foreign Office in sending our invitations to potential foreign participants through Ethiopian Diplomatic Missions abroad. In line with this, we sincerely request the esteemed Ministry to extend our invitations to foreign participants through selected Ethiopian Embassies in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.
Century Promotion and Events and Commercial Nominees avail themselves of this opportunity to renew to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia the assurances of their highest consideration.
We have kindly attached the letter addressed to foreign participants.
With best compliments
