From May 30 to Saturday June 03, the esplanade of Yaoundé’s Hôtel de Ville hosted the first edition of the of the Central Regional Exhibition of the Small and Medium Size Enterprises.
The Plateforme des Promoteurs des Farines Locales au Cameroun (PROFALCAM) was to take part in the SAREP Centre 2023 edition. This regional SME trade show focused on “Vulgarizing SME in the Centre: spotlight on local flours”. The event was organized by the MINPMEESA Centre regional delegation, and was attended by around a hundred participants.
PROFALCAM took part not only as a participant, but also as a resource person for the local flour sector. Its participation was expressed through a presentation stand. The stand was an opportunity for the company to make itself known to the public and present its services. The stand was also an effective way for PROFALCAM to make contacts who are now potential business partners.
In all, over 150 people visited PROFALCAM’s stand at the Sarep Centre. In addition to the information they obtained from the staff manning the stand, most of them left with leaflets for further information. Convinced of the merits of the platform and the benefits of membership, many decided to go ahead and finalize their registration.
In any case, PROFALCAM’s presence at the Sarep Centre was not in vain. Indeed, it was also an opportunity for the public to find out more about local flours, thanks to a presentation by Permanent Secretary Jean Medjiengoue. We look forward to the next edition.
