(Business in Cameroon) - South Korea, Switzerland and Turkey will provide their technical and financial assistance to Cameroon in the framework of a project for the structuration of vocational training in the Textiles, Clothing & Fashion industry. The Partnership agreement for this convention was signed on June 27, 2018, by the Cameroonian ministry of employment and vocational training and the country’s association of textile, clothing and fashion professionals.

According to that agreement, the vocational training ministry will help elaborate training aimed at certifying the instructors to develop an engineering base in the sector.  

According to Loga Mahop, president of the Cameroonian Association of textiles, clothing and fashion professionals, this support should boost the local transformation of raw materials and pave the way for a dynamic local market.  

Let’s remind that officially, Cameroonian operators control just 1% of the clothing market dominated by second-hand clothes and products imported from China and Europe.
