Said Mr Ndoro:<\/p>\n<p>Norsad\u2019s funding will help strengthen CABS\u2019 balance sheet by providing medium-term funding as well as capacitating the exporting industries by providing working capital and capital expenditure facilities, thus boosting the country\u2019s foreign currency earnings.<\/p>\n<p>As CABS, we will deploy the funds to the productive export sectors, notably agriculture, manufacturing, mining, and tourism. The focus will be on generation of foreign currency, creation of employment and value chain financing for the benefit of industry players and the economy at large.<\/p>\n<p>He said the investment will promote entrepreneurship, enable growth and improve livelihoods.<\/p>\n<p>Norsad Capital is an impact investor and private creditor provider, offering tailor-made debt solutions to mid-market growth companies in Sub-Saharan Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, CABS is one of the top three banks in Zimbabwe and has 38 operational branches, over 900 Agents, and the largest Point of Sales machine network of about 25 000 countrywide.<\/p>\n<p>The agricultural sector is key to Zimbabwe\u2019s economy for domestic production, exports, and employment; hence, Norsad\u2019s facility supports sustainable livelihoods and builds a better Africa by impacting lives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ethiopia\">Ethiopia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ethiopia.
