As South Africa hosts the Group of Twenty (G20) meeting, marking the first time the premier summit of heads of state and government is held on African soil, significant political momentum is expected to boost trade and logistics across the continent.

Representatives from Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey, the UK, the US, and two regional bodies—the European Union and the African Union—will gather in Johannesburg from November 22 to 23.
