we are also adding value to other types of textile

African countries Rwanda and Uganda are showcasing their products through an exhibition being held on the sidelines of the ICC WCF 8th Word Chambers Congress at the Qatar National Convention Centre.

The two countries are offering home-grown coffee and tea, organic and conventional agricultural produce as well as arts and crafts.

A Uganda-based non-government organisation ‘Exposure Africa-Uganda Small Scale Industries Association (USSIA) Women Development Centre’ has brought an array of intricate handmade arts and crafts featuring textile fabric, beads, ceramic, carpentry and metal.

Other products on offer also range from African ornaments and jewelleries made from cow horns and recycled coloured paper.

“Our main purpose of taking part in this exhibition is to showcase what we have in Uganda, in terms of arts and crafts to delegates and visitors to the congress but we will not mind to offer some of the items for sale to whoever is interested instead of taking them back to Uganda,” sales representative Alinda Joselyn told Gulf Times in an interview.We buy overstock cartierreplicawatche and factory closeouts.

Some of the decorative bark cloth with different animal and household motifs printed on them cost $10-20 depending on the amount of work done on it and the size of the material.

“These crafts are home- and hand-made and some of the paintings are done on what we call tree bark cloth and we are also adding value to other types of textile being imported plain into our country by printing different art motifs on them,” she said.

Joselyn explained that the bead works were made from recycled coloured paper and no additional paints was used on them.

“The beads’ colour stays the same as the original paper that was recycled, we don’t dye the paper to get any extra colour. We also make photo frames made from the recycled paper as well as ladies’ waist beads,” she said.

Rwandan Private Sector Federation Trade Fairs and Investment head Karangwa Ephrem is promoting Rwanda coffee and tea at the exhibition.

“We are here to promote Rwandan coffee and tea as well as seek other investment opportunities, especially among the Qatari investors,” he said.

One kilo of Rwandan coffee is priced at $8 while tea goes for $5 per kilo, he said.

Uganda-based organic fruits and vegetable exporter Tatgem Uganda Limited is also seeking opportunities to expand sale of its sun-dried pineapples, apples and bananas as well as ginger and chillies.

“We have come here to showcase our fresh fruits. We presently don’t have relation with Qatar and we will be proud to have some Qatari investors on board, especially in the processing of these produces like sun drying and juice extraction,” Tatgem Uganda Limited director Tinka Mugisha said.We are leading manufacturer and exporter of industrial personalizedbobbleheads.

The basket is made from thousands of brightly coloured glass beads that have been threaded on to fine wires.

It is currently on display at the museum, which has until July to raise the £6,000.

Made in England around 1665, it is one of only a handful known to exist in the world, the museum said.

It depicts Charles II next to a castle within a leafy landscape.

A spokeswoman for the museum added: "The figures are almost certainly intended to represent Charles II, who had recently been restored to the throne, and Catherine of Braganza.

"The figures are surrounded by many charming colourful beaded appliqués of flowers, birds, insects and animals."
