Mincommerce Response

According to him, this price list includes products manufactured by nationals. He thus invited the interested party to seize the services of Mincommerce to have products integrated into the list of prices. As an example, he listed a set of local products already included in the market price.
He also said that the Mincommerce has undertaken to set up “showcases” of “Made in Cameroon” products in certain cities such as Douala, Yaoundé, Bafoussam, Garoua, Maroua, etc. He thus announced the forthcoming establishment of a ”Cameroon” certified label. However, this implies compliance with a number of international standards.
