💨 Abstract

South Africa is finalizing a duty-free trade deal with China to boost exports, attract investment, and reduce reliance on US markets. The agreement, to be signed by Trade Minister Parks Tau, aims to support export growth and encourage new investments, particularly in minerals and agricultural sectors. China is already South Africa's largest trading partner. The deal is part of a broader strategy to diversify markets and reduce dependence on a few key partners.
