Mine Entra 2026 Set to Open with 250 Exhibitors

Preparations are complete for the 2026 Mine Entra exhibition in Bulawayo, with over 250 exhibitors converging at the trade fair grounds, the Daily News reported. The event, a flagship for Zimbabwe’s mining sector, aims to attract investment and showcase technology amid a challenging operating environment. The exhibition follows years of mining sector growth driven by gold and platinum, but recent power cuts and currency instability have dampened output. Organizers hope the expo will revive investor confidence and secure new deals, but the sector faces headwinds from depressed global mineral prices. Yet the sector’s potential is constrained by chronic energy shortages and policy unpredictability. These factors could overshadow the deals struck at the fair and test the government’s commitment to creating an enabling environment.
