The China-Zimbabwe Exchange Centre will host a China zero-tariff policy workshop on April 30 at the Celebration Centre in Harare. This limited-access event is expected to attract approximately 300 stakeholders and traders interested in accessing the Chinese market duty-free. Managing director Walter Chanaka stated that the initiative aims to provide preferential access for Zimbabwean exports under China鈥檚 zero-tariff framework. He noted that China has eliminated tariffs on thousands of export items from African countries, including Zimbabwe, thereby opening its market to Zimbabwean agricultural products, minerals, manufactured goods, and other approved commodities. Chanaka described this policy as a strategic opportunity for local businesses to enter the world鈥檚 second-largest economy.
