An exhibitor at CAMINEX, the South African Capital Equipment Export Council (SACEEC) is tasked with assisting in advantageously positioning SA companies’ products and allied services within international target markets, yet have repeatedly witnessed the difficulty its members experience in establishing a foothold in Africa from which they can deliver on projects that contribute to the development of the region. The SACEEC aims to provide a solution to bridge those obstacles by proposing cost-efficient, workable and well-resourced centres of operations from which companies may launch their business interests into the Zambian and ultimately the surrounding market.

CAMINEX is organised by the Copperbelt Mining, Agricultural and Commercial Show Society (CACSS) together with Specialised Exhibitions Montgomery, known for its highly successful Electra Mining Africa exhibition which has a strong 46 year heritage.

The event is endorsed and supported by the Ministry of Mines and Mineral Development, the Ministry of Trade, Commerce and Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Livestock, the Zambia Chamber of Mines, the Department of Trade and Industry South Africa and the Kitwe District Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
