Kipepeo 2000, a Tanzanian company which received IESC technical assistance and was sponsored by the ECA Hub to attend the Sources trade show in New York last May, recently concluded a deal worth $19,950.

The deal was with a U.S. importer, The Hunger Site, which ordered a 20-foot container of wood carvings. The order, the first of its kind for Kipepeo 2000, is a direct result of its attendance at the Sources show.

Kipepeo thanks the ECA Hub for enabling it to break into the U.S. market for the very first time, and also credits the IESC Volunteer Expert (VE) for providing valuable post-show advice in sales negotiations. Congratulations!
