Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) invited investors from Brazil and Turkey to take advantage of opportunities offered by the Tripartite Free Trade Area (TFTA). These countries can leverage the tripartite agreement with the Southern African
Development Community (SADC) and Eastern African Community (EAC) to expand their business operations.
This was revealed by COMESA secretary general Chileshe Kapwepwe at a meeting with ambassadors from Brazil and Turkey Arthur Nogueira and Istem Circiroglu, respectively.

Ms Kapwepwe said cooperation with countries such as Brazil and Turkey is cardinal as COMESA looks to be fully integrated to become an internationally competitive regional economic bloc.
