GRTU President Paul Abela participated on behalf of GRTU to the Malta Enterprise business Delegation to South Africa. It is important for the GRTU to take part in such delegations so that we ensure Malta is marketed correctly and opportunities for members are not missed.
Other than being an immensely beautiful country South Africa has good business opportunities such as in renewable energy, agriculture, food and beverages, financial services, etc.. There are several who are seriously interested to invest in Malta. They have very good infrastructure and are very organised.
They are the major investors in Africa. They were very interested in hearing about the schemes for small businesses such as loan Guarantee and employment schemes.
