Township and Village Intra-Trade Conference

On behalf of the Organising Committee, it is our pleasure to formally invite your association to participate in the Township and Village Intra-Trade Conference, taking place from 13–14 November 2025 in Ladysmith, KwaZulu-Natal Province.

The Intra-Trade Conference serves as a dynamic platform for entrepreneurs, cooperatives, local businesses, and community-based organisations to engage, collaborate, and unlock new market opportunities across South Africa’s townships and rural economies. This annual gathering aims to promote intra-community trade, showcase local products and services, and advance sustainable local economic development.

In recognition of your association’s contribution to community and business development, we are delighted to extend 20 complimentary admission passes for your members. These passes include full access to all conference sessions, exhibitions, and networking engagements, as well as meals during the event.

Please note that transportation and accommodation costs remain the responsibility of individual attendees.

We encourage your association to seize this opportunity to connect with fellow industry leaders, share knowledge, and explore partnerships that can further strengthen local tourism and enterprise growth within townships and villages.

We look forward to welcoming you and your members to Ladysmith for what promises to be a transformative and impactful engagement.
