President of Botswana, Mokgweetsi Masisi, says trade relations between South Africa and Botswana have a long history but have largely been skewed in favour of South Africa.

Masisi says trade relations between South Africa and Botswana have a long history but have largely been skewed in favour of South Africa.

He says the roundtable provides an opportunity for counterparts, in government and the private sector, to engage in initiatives that will benefit both countries. Masisi was addressing delegates at the South Africa and Botswana Business Roundtable currently under way in Gaborone, Botswana. “According to our Statistics office, Botswana has over these 28 years, experienced negative trade balances with South Africa, the negative trade balances runs into the negative of billions of Pula for each year. Between 2017 and 2021, Botswana exported goods worth 31 billion Pula, while it imported goods worth 200 billion Pula. This means that on average we are importing 42 billion and exporting 6 billion Pula worth of goods per annum.
