Commonwealth Society chairman, Honorary Consul General of Yemen and chairman of the Pak-America Business Council Dr Mirza Ikhtyar Baig visited the expo on Saturday.

“[The] Lifestyle Furniture Exhibition has developed itself as an esteemed trade event in the country. A unique exhibition, offering discounted deals within six months of the second Covid wave, is a blessing for the people.”

He also appreciated the efforts of the exhibition organisers, Faisal Mohsin and Zara Faisal, in the promotion of the local furniture industry.

Dr Baig said that the government should activate the commercial attachments abroad for the promotion of non-traditional export goods with a particular focus on African markets, which could be the launch-pad for Pakistani furniture and other non-traditional goods.
