Mine Entra postponed to an unconfirmed date
July 4, 2024
Zimbabwe’s premier Mining Exhibition, The Mining Engineering and Transport Exhibition (Mine Entra), initially set for July 17-19, has been postponed to a yet-to-be-announced date, as revealed by Zimbabwe International Trade Fair Company (ZITF) Board Chairman, Mr. Busisa Moyo.

According to Moyo the decision to reschedule Mine Entra was made to avoid potential conflicts with the upcoming SADC Industrialisation Week, a significant regional event scheduled for July 28-August 2 in Harare. The SADC Industrialisation Week is expected to attract substantial attention from industry leaders, government officials, and investors across the region.
“The Zimbabwe International Trade Fair Company (ZITF) wishes to inform exhibitors, visitors, buyers, delegates, and all other stakeholders that the 27th edition of the mining, engineering and transport exhibition, Mine Entra, originally scheduled for July 17-19, 2024, in Bulawayo, has been postponed to a date yet to be confirmed,” stated Moyo.
“Consultations regarding suitable dates are underway at the highest level of government and business leadership. This is to ensure the standard of the show and depth of interactions, discussions, and interventions meet the highest standard possible.”
Moyo said the ZITF Company recognizes the importance of both Mine Entra and the SADC Industrialisation Week. Holding Mine Entra during the same timeframe could lead to divided attendance, potentially diminishing the impact of each event.
Postponing Mine Entra will ensure both events receive the focused participation they deserve, maximizing opportunities for attendees and exhibitors. This approach allows participants to engage fully with each event without scheduling conflicts.
According to Moyo, under the guidance of the Ministry of Mines and Mining Development and in partnership with the Chamber of Mines Zimbabwe, the ZITF Company remains dedicated to delivering a world-class mining exhibition fostering collaboration, innovation, and growth. The rescheduled Mine Entra exhibition will continue under the theme: “Unearthing Success: The Mining Value Chains, Innovation and Industrialisation Nexus.” The event aims to unite local and international industry leaders, investors, and stakeholders to explore advancements and opportunities within the mining sector.
“All registered participants, exhibitors, and sponsors will be directly contacted with the new dates and details. For further information and the rescheduled dates, please visit the ZITF Company website at [www.zitf.co.zw](http://www.
The ZITF Company appreciates the support and understanding of all stakeholders and looks forward to welcoming them to the rescheduled Mine Entra 2024 exhibition,” Moyo said.
