Africa’s second Organic and Natural Products Expo returns with exciting offerings

The countdown has begun for Africa’s second Organic and Natural Products Expo Africa. This flagship event, organised by South African Trade Promotions (SATP), takes place at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg from the 14th to the 16th of September. As excitement mounts, exhibitors are eagerly unveiling their plans for this year’s event, which aims to build on the successes of its inaugural edition. 

The much-anticipated HOSTEX 2024, Africa’s leading food, drink, and hospitality trade expo since
1986, is preparing for a bumper year, with nine months until it opens its doors to connect the
industry once again. Taking place from 3rd to 5th March 2024 at the Sandton Convention Centre, the
expo is set to unveil the latest trends and developments in these sectors, all under one roof.

The good, the bad and the ugly of Women’s Day

This day is a positive tribute to gender equality and women’s rights. 9 August 1956 marks the day that about 20,000 women marched to the Union Buildings in Pretoria to protest legislation that gave the government control over the movement of black women in urban areas by amalgamating the hated Pass Laws into one Act which would extend its power to include the restriction of the movement of black women in designated white areas.
