She said that women have the potential to recognise their skills at national and international level all they need is opportunity, adding that the chamber has planned this event so that women can offer their products and services in a better way.
"Our main objective is to facilitate poor segment of the society, especially women, to help them stand their own feet and earn livelihood for their family," she added.
Fair had been designed to promote the skills of businesswomen and give them an opportunity to learn from their counterparts, she said.
