This will cut down the transaction cost of trading under the African Continental Free Trading Area (AfCFTA) with a huge market of 1.2billion consumers.
This was revealed in Kampala, Uganda early by John Bosco Kalisa, the executive director of the East African Business Council (EABC) where the facility is set for launch today.
