Message from Minister for Commerce

Published Updated

It is a significant development for the world today. Without IT, many trade and commerce activities such as Customs, would have been very difficult to manage. Therefore, an IT conference focused particularly on issues of customs, trade and transport logistics is an extremely important one. Thus, the 2011 WCO IT Conference and Exhibition is a prime platform for Pakistan businesspersons.
Such an initiative will offer traders and industry players to connect directly with suppliers and users, etc and share information regarding trends, technologies and solutions with them. It will also give an opportunity to see the latest IT solutions, especially designed for trade and customs and their likes. Thus, the conference will specifically address all IT related issues that trades and custom agents encounter while carrying out their day to day activities.
There are also the advantages of marketing and promoting Pakistan's businesses on a global platform, as it will introduce to businessmen several potential with common interests in trade facilitation and improving supply chain management. This brings together key associates in trade, transport logistics and other government agencies playing important roles at the border.
