Zimbabwe Achievers Awards International has announced the imminent launch of the much anticipated ZAA USA as it continues to spread its wings, with successful events already held in UK and South Africa. The prestigious awards ceremony is scheduled to be held on the 19th November 2016 at The Westin Stonebriar Hotel & Golf Club, with nominations set to open for the public on July 1, 2016.
The event will emulate the Zimbabwe Achievers Awards in the United Kingdom and South Africa.
ZAA chairman, Conrad Mwanza, said the awards were an epitome of distinction in various categories that comprise the Zimbabwean community living in the US.
"The inaugural Zimbabwe Achievers Awards US will be a unique opportunity for the many Zimbabweans in the US to celebrate their own successes," said Mwanza.
"The objective of the awards is to recognise and celebrate the various individuals, companies and organisations that have flown the Zimbabwean flag flying high and have significantly contributed to growth in their respective fields and communities," he added.
