This year’s edition is expected to attract more than 150 exhibitors, with the show running under the theme; “collaborative, integrative solutions for economic development.”
Meanwhile the official opening of the show has been set for Saturday July 22, 2023.
Speaking during a presser in Gweru recently, Midlands Show Society chairperson, Augustine Mpakurirwa said the show was crucial in giving exhibitors a rare opportunity to market their products and creating synergies.
“The show is about bringing in business people to collaborate and interact as well as sharing ideas. As the show society, we would like to urge businesses and stakeholders to work together, creating linkages and developing the country.
“We have invited music maestro, Sylvester Chizanga aka ‘Freeman’ as the guest artist at the Premier Provincial Annual Business Extravaganza alongside local artists,” he said.
This year’s edition was moved to July as the country is expected to hold harmonized elections on August 23, the dates which happened to be the traditional timeframe of the show.
