Zimbabwe's Industry Minister Ndlovu asked SADC countries to match their standards and technical rules. He believes this helps cut down barriers when trading across borders. His message came through Dr. Runyowa, who spoke at the start of an important meeting about trade barriers in Victoria Falls. The gathering brings together officials from all member countries.

The meeting runs until Friday and falls under special trade agreements between SADC nations. Everyone there wants to make business easier across southern Africa. They picked a theme about matching standards to help factories grow and make more money for all countries involved. These officials see the meeting as their chance to reshape how trade works.

Minister Ndlovu pointed out past successes like matching 124 different standards across many business areas. Countries also agreed on rules for 21 types of fruits and 19 kinds of plants that cross borders. The group plans to spend their time building skills in testing, measuring, and checking product quality. They want every country to have the right tools and knowledge.

He stressed that everything they do must fit with bigger plans like the SADC plan for factories through 2063. Their work also connects to development goals for 2030 and the overall vision for where SADC should be by 2050. Ndlovu ended by asking everyone to work together creatively. He dreams of building an area where businesses compete well globally and bring wealth to all citizens.
