(Business in Cameroon) - The participation of Cameroon’s economic operators in Durban fair in South Africa from September 25 to October 1, 2017, has started to yield results.

Indeed, during the fair, some South African partners have signed a contract to be supplied with Penja pepper. This was revealed on January 25, 2018, during a ceremony of presentation of New Year’s wishes to Luc Magloire Mbarga Atangana, the minister of commerce, in Yaoundé, Achille Bassilékin, secretary general at this ministry.

During that same fair, TORRECAM, the Cameroonian coffee roaster has obtained the firm promise of another South African partner, whose name has not been disclosed, to distribute Cameroon’s coffee in that country with 55 million consumers.
