The Engineering Division at Kabwe’s Main Workshops is actively providing engineering services to other companies through manufacturing, repair and maintenance of spares and equipment.

Among the notable exhibits, ZRL was operating the mini train that provided the show goers with a feel of a train service.

The ZITF is an international exhibition that allows both local and foreign businesses to showcase their products and services with a view of creating new markets and maintaining business linkages.
