A delegation of the Western Cape Government plans to further promote trade and investment for the province in the United States .The WCG has prioritised protecting the Africa Growth and Opportunity Act , an agreement shared between South Africa and the US, which enabled duty-free trading of goods from South Africa to the States.
‘AGOA is very important to us. It is a critical statute that has benefited our province, our country, and our region for over a decade. We are fully aware that there are concerns over whether the US Government will retain and renew our membership come 2025,’ says Western Cape Premier Alan Winde. ‘We are demonstrating through a series of meetings in Washington DC that our delegation has held so far that as a province, we value the benefits AGOA has brought to our region and country.
Our delegation in the US is hard at work securing the WC & SA’s eligibility to remain part of the Africa Growth & Opportunity Act . At a host of meetings on Capitol Hill this week, robust & candid discussions have been held. 🇺🇸🇿🇦
