Business Leadership SA says the country must accelerate trade diversification efforts

# Business Leadership South Africa says, amidst trade negotiations with the US, the government must prepare for all scenarios by accelerating trade diversification efforts. Minister of Trade, Industry and Competition, Parks Tau, met US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and members of Congress in Washington last week, to strike a trade deal. BLSA CEO Busiswe Mavuso says in an increasingly fragmented global economy, South Africa’s success will depend not on any single trading relationship, but on its ability to build resilience through multiple pathways to prosperity.
