The theme of this year's biennial regional fair being held alongside Togo's 9th National Trade Fair is "Strengthening intra-Community trade through public- private partnership.

It was chosen in response to the challenges hindering intra-Community trade through gaps between government, the organized private sector and other stakeholders. The regional fair is considered an important platform for promoting intra- Community trade, cooperation and integration for the benefit of the Community's 300 million citizens.
