WOMEN Affairs, Community, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Minister Senator Monica Mutsvangwa has commended small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Matabeleland North for driving community economic growth, saying their work aligns with the Government’s devolution agenda and Heritage-based Education 5.0.
Speaking during the International Day of Families commemorations, which ran concurrently with a business expo held in the province recently, the Minister said she visits Matabeleland North every June to assess SME progress.
Minister Mutsvangwa highlighted the strong organisation among local business leaders and noted the return of Zimbabweans from the diaspora in South Africa and Botswana who are reinvesting in their communities.
“The SMEs are very organised; the leadership of SMEs is very organised throughout the country, but in particular in Matabeleland North,” Senator Mutsvangwa said.
