The Acting CEO of Biosecurity Authority of Fiji, Hillary Kumwenda says the National Trade Facilitation agreement encourages the reduction in the cost of goods and services for consumers.
While speaking at the National Trade Facilitation Workshop for the Private Sector, Kumwenda says the agreement will especially benefit small and micro businesses.
He says if most of Fiji’s current and potential trading partners implement the Trade Facilitation Agreement this will greatly facilitate access of Fiji exports and imports into the global market.
More than 20 participants from Fiji’s border agencies and also the private sector are part of the two day workshop.
