"Chituru chegudo works wonders on men, kungoisa mumazondo zvobva zvashanda. Ndakabva nacho Mberengwa and people who have used it always come back for more.
"People are already coming to my stand to enquire and most get my contacts so that they can get in touch and even come home," he said.
Selling for US$5, the product is also used for luck, cleansing of evil spirits and Sekuru Soko, who is exhibiting at the expo for the second time, hailed the expo for linking him to both local and international buyers.
"People want it for its main function which is sexual enhancement but it also works wonders on cleansing and luck.
"My first time to exhibit was last year and I realised that it is a good opportunity to link with clients while marketing products. I'm glad to be back this year and I'm positive that I will get more buyers.
"Some of the buyers I met last year from Europe visit me at my Chitungwiza base every time they are in Zimbabwe and they have given me good business."
Sekuru Soko, during a small to medium enterprises workshop which was held on the sidelines of the Sanganai/Hlanganani, also urged other exhibitors to make use of the expo, and take advantage of the opportunity to meet with buyers.
"I hope you not expecting to go back with money right away from this expo by selling products during the expo. This is an opportunity to link and market your products and buyers will always make follow upS on good products.
"Please do use this opportunity wisely and best position yourselves and your products," he argued.
