(Business in Cameroon) - The world prices of agricultural products exported by Cemac countries (cocoa, coffee, cotton etc.) are expected to bounce back, growing by 2% this year, compared to late 2018 when they declined 1.9% in the fourth quarter.

Statistics provided by the central bank Beac also forecast an increase by 5% in metals’ export prices, following flat prices in Q4 2018. According to the bank, the uptick is in line with a “supply reduction outlook and the control of commercial disputes.”
