Welcome to the Ireland South Africa Business Association

As President of ISABA, I am delighted to welcome you to our association’s website. In these challenging times it is important to continue to foster strong commercial and investment ties between countries and not to retreat into the dead end of protectionism. In this regard it is particularly encouraging to note that trade between Ireland and South Africa continues to expand.  In 2007 bilateral trade between our two countries was worth over €0.5 billion.  Irish exports to South Africa grew in 2007 by over 18% on the previous year. more
