The Customs Authority sets out an expanded Ahlan Ramadan fair
A number of importers argue that the proposed timetable needs a transition period of at least six months, so that small businesses can adapt their accounting systems.
The Chamber had earlier launched a trader training programme on e-invoicing, taken up by more than 2,100 participants across six governorates.
He added that stock turnover improved by close to 12% over the last quarter, but that the cost of finance remains the first obstacle to expansion in the governorates.
The figures in brief
A number of importers argue that the proposed timetable needs a transition period of at least six months, so that small businesses can adapt their accounting systems.
Transparency in the supply chain is not a burden on the market; it is what protects it from monopoly.
Analysts expect no immediate effect on consumer prices: current stock covers market needs at least to the end of next quarter.
Where the divisions stand
- export facilities into African markets among next quarter’s priorities
- A review of the timetable with the trade divisions
- A monthly report to the federation’s board
Chamber figures put the number of registered businesses at 41,000, up by 3,400 on last year, most of them in retail and logistics.
