Participants of the Graphic Business Access Bank SME fair have expressed immense satisfaction with the organisers for such an initiative.
For many of them, the event allowed them to meet new clients and expose them to various opportunities.
The two-day event, which was held on the theme “Running Sustainable Business in a Challenging Economic Landscape,” was aimed at supporting the development of small and medium enterprises.
The fair brought together over 150 exhibitors and merchants who displayed their products and services.
Since its launch in 2021, the Graphic Business/ Access Bank SME fair has equipped over 170,000 SMEs with digital and vital soft skills to impact their businesses.
Following the launch of the fair, the Access Bank, in collaboration with Graphic Business, also launched the SMEs in Focus in 2022, to further extend their commitment to sharing essential information for SMEs to remain competitive.
The bank has also provided working capital support above GH¢300 million to boost SMEs’ capital base and aid their expansion.
