Egypt's Ministry of Public Business Enterprise is set to kick off its forum for foreign trade to eastern and central Africa on Tuesday, where discussions will take place on the services of a trade shipping line between Suez's Ain Sokhna and eastern Africa in October.

In an official statement, the ministry said the forum, named 'Gosour for International Trade in Eastern and Central Africa,' will be held in Cairo under the auspices of Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly this week for exporters and importers in cooperation with the Holding Company of Maritime and Land Transport.

Public Business Enterprise Minister Hisham Tawfik is set to present in an opening speech the services provided through the shipping lane.
