This announcement was made by Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce, Mr. Manniram Prashad at a press conference at his office on South Road, Georgetown.

The highly anticipated GuyExpo 2009 to be hosted at its traditional venue, the National Exhibition Centre at Sophia, Georgetown, under the theme ‘Promoting Business in a Low Carbon Environment” was slated for September 24 to 29.

“Because of the numerous responses that we have been having from overseas visitors and overseas delegation, and to coincide with a set of people from different countries including United States and Canada who want to bring in delegations to attend our trade fair, we have decided to shift it just by one week,” he explained.

Minister Prashad said the packed event will run for six days starting October 1 and concluding October 6.
