Mr. Auguste Mbappe Penda, CNSC General Manager and Vice-chair of the MINREX/CNSC platform for the implementation and monitoring of the strategic institutional partnership between the CNSC and the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council, is a key participant at the Commonwealth business event taking place from 19 to 25 June in Rwanda.
The Cameroon National Shippers’ Council, an Institutional Strategic Partner of the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council (CWEIC) is using the Commonwealth Business Forum to promote Cameroon’s foreign trade to the other 53 Commonwealth member states, having English as an official language. This business forum is a side event of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM).
CNSC’s General Manager is leading a delegation comprising his close collaborators, SMEs entrepreneurs and members of entrepreneurial associations such as the Cameroon Business Women’s Group and the Cameroon Employers Association, all encouraged by the CNSC to make the most of the numerous business opportunities offered by this event. These SMEs will mainly benefit from the visibility offered by the CNSC exhibition stand in the Cameroon pavilion to showcase their products and participate in the Grand Cameroon Exhibition Day organised by the Investment Promotion Agency (IPA).
The CNSC strives to facilitate trade by providing shippers with facilities that will help reduce cargo transit time and costs at ports and along Cameroon road transport corridors. The CNSC has, since 2015, embarked on a vast programme for the construction of cargo warehouses in and around port areas to decongest these entry and exit points for goods in the Central African SubRegion. Additionally, the CNSC is building rest areas dubbed "accommodation centres", for road transporters plying transport corridors through which goods offloaded at Cameroon’s ports are carried to geographically disadvantaged neighbouring countries.
Moreover, the CNSC has put up an information portal (the "Cameroon Trade Hub"), accessible via the link www. cameroontradehub.cm. This trade portal provides users, investors and interested persons with information on foreign trade procedures in Cameroon, along with relevant trade documents and statistics.
