Intertek renews contract with The Government of Cameroon for its Conformity Assessment Programme (PECAE)
April 05, 2022
Intertek, a leading Total Quality Assurance provider to industries worldwide, has extended its contract with the Agence des Normes et de la Qualité (ANOR) in Cameroon to continue to support its Conformity Assessment Programme 'Programme d'Evaluation de la Conformité Avant Embarquement (PECAE)' for Exports to Cameroon in providing certification service to exporters to Cameroon.
The programme verifies the conformity of all products across all sectors, except those that are on the exempt list, in the respective exporting countries. This ensures they comply with the applicable Cameroonian technical regulations and quality standards, assuring Cameroon's citizens of the quality and reliability of imported goods. Intertek has been supporting the programme since its launch in 2016.
Thomas Kordick, Global Business Line Leader, Government and Trade Services, Intertek said: "We are delighted to continue to work with ANOR in supporting them with the ongoing success of the PECAE, giving Cameroon's consumers the assurance they need when buying imported goods and protecting them from sub-standard products. Having introduced the very first Conformity Assessment Programme in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia more than 25 years ago, Intertek has the experience and expertise to provide ANOR, and exporters to Cameroon, with a rapid and excellent service."
Exporters to Cameroon are required to provide an Attestation of Conformity (AoC) for Customs clearance in accordance with Government regulation. This certificate can only be obtained from an Approved Inspection Body such as Intertek. Intertek is also approved for the Gabon and Ivory Coast programmes, giving exporters to West Africa an ever better service by taking advantage of the synergies of using one provider for their certification needs.
Intertek are the pioneers of Conformity Assessment programmes and with our network of more than 1,000 laboratories and offices and over 44,000 people in more than 100 countries, delivers innovative and bespoke Assurance, Testing, Inspection and Certification solutions for our customers' operations and supply chains.
