{Rwanda will soon establish multi-service business centres in Brazzaville to help foster trade relations with the Republic of Congo.

The service centres will be operated by the Private Sector Federation (PSF) with support from the Ministry of Trade and Industry, Geoffrey Kamanzi, the PSF head of trade negotiation and facilitation, told The New Times on Monday.
He added that PSF and Ministry of Trade and Industry have already signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) committing to open the trade facilitation centres by the end of the year.
“The centres will also play a critical role in marketing ‘Made in Rwanda’ products in the Republic of Congo besides strengthening trade links between the two countries,” Kamanzi said.
According to the agreement seen by The New Times, the centres will handle shipping arrangements and other support services that support the export sector.
Under the deal, the trade ministry committed to facilitate discussions with its Brazzaville counterparts and support the centres technically, while PSF will identify the appropriate structures to operationalise the centres.
