In the opinion of Mota-Engil Moçambique chairman Aníbal Leite, these official visits represented “a unique moment where the Mota-Engil brand was recognized”. From a strategic point of view, Aníbal Leite recalled that participation in this event was of great importance for Mota-Engil Mozambique as it has been present in the country for more than 20 years and because the Maputo International Fair (FACIM) “is much more than just a fair but rather a manifestation of Mozambique´s economic growth and its economic relations with other regions of the world”.

In total the Fair was attended by 2,700 exhibitors of which some 2,000 are Mozambican with the other 700 representing 26 different countries.
