President Ramaphosa says the pandemic is worsening across the globe.

President Cyril Ramaphosa has urged US companies based in South Africa to continue to invest in the country. The President was virtually addressing the US-South Africa Investment Roundtable on Tuesday.

There are many new opportunities for US companies to participate in our economy as we seek to increase investment in our productive capacity.#InvestSA ?? https://t.co/wPtypufwcz

The roundtable discussion with US companies preceded the third annual South Africa Investment Conference that will be held from the 17th to the 18th of this month in Sandton, north of Johannesburg.

President Ramaphosa participates in the US-SA business and investment roundtable:

Let us continue to work together to strengthen the trade environment and investment climate in our respective countries.

In the wake of COVID-19, this assumes an added urgency.https://t.co/Z6kuO7GTgA

President Ramaphosa says the more than 600 US  companies working in South Africa have been central to the country’s investment and job creation drive.

The African Continental Free Trade Area, which will come into operation in January, will have a massive impact on African economies, on trade and investment.https://t.co/VUvR4RF7qw

Growing domestic manufacturing is a key component of our recovery plan. Much work is underway.

We have, for example, already finalised master plans in the automotive, clothing and textile, poultry and sugar industries.https://t.co/JpHXEjr7AU

I want to mention here the recently concluded deal between one of our own pharmaceutical companies, Aspen Pharmacare, and two subsidiaries of Johnson & Johnson to manufacture a COVID-19 candidate vaccine here in South Africa.https://t.co/M32EnwYFnP
