(Business in Cameroon) - The Ministry of Public Procurement has just awarded to the Chinese company China Road & Bridge Corporation, a contract worth FCfa 8.6 billion in total, to build the Logpom-Logbesou-PK 14 road in the city of Douala, the economic capital of the country.

For this contract, whose works will be undertaken over a 24-months period, we officially learn, China Road & Bridge Corporation was preferred over other companies such as Sogea-Satom, or Encobat, a Chadian company which is getting more and more vantage in the Cameroonian civil engineering sector.

China Road & Bridge is already present in Cameroon on at least two projects of the Urban and Rural Land Development and Maintenance Mission (Maetur), and on the project for the construction of the Yaoundé-Nsimalenmotorway, on which this company will build two kilometres on the urban stretch.
