Pleasant greetings, welcome to my blog.
It's Throwback Thursday, #TBT and I hope you're reliving those good old memories. I also hope that all is well with you and yours.

Today, I'd love to share a memory from the Aba International Trade Fair that I attended sometime last year. The fare was held at Aba Mega Mall, Osisioma, here in my city, Aba, Abia State.

The fair which lasted for 10 days - November 28th to December 7th, 2024, was organized by the Aba Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture, (ACCIMA), an organization that promotes trade, commerce, and industry in my city.

The trade fair saw different companies and brands in attendance, both large and medium scale from within and outside the state. From automobiles companies, footwear, solar energy tech companies to food and beverage companies, including mattress manufacturers, beauty care products, agro farms, clothing and textiles, thrift vendors, etc.





The various local governments making up the state were not left. They showcased different food crops and their local delicacies.

Ah, not forgetting my own organization, Magic 102.9FM radio. As the media partner of the event, we provided the platform for the fair to be broadcasted live on radio including offering business hypes.


The trade fair was a great opportunity for me to pitch my radio station and connect with potential clients.

The standout at the fair was this energetic "ọkpa" () vendor's sales pitch. It was topnotch.

Watch her in the video clip I made.

More captivating photos

A makeshift garden, what an innovative display.


Silhouettes were also in attendance, lol.

Despite some expectations, the turnout wasn't massive, but the trade fair was a grand success. There were exciting deals and sales - some companies like Oris group, Topisto tomato mix, even sold out. It was crazy. Shoppers came in their numbers and closed the sales.

I wasn't left out as I got great deals myself, including a comfy slippers that I'm still rocking.

I also won a beautiful water bottle and pen from a raffle draw. Some others won IPad, power banks, customized tote bags, jotters and more.

I'm looking forward to attending more fairs in the future.

Thanks for coming around.

Wow, what an interesting event. I love trade fairs a lot because you can get good deals on goods directly from those in charge either the major distributor or the company itself.

Congratulations on your win👍
