Overview

Access to premium markets requires recognised certifications. XP-NOVA supports Cameroonian agricultural organisations in obtaining and maintaining international certifications: organic, Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance, EUDR, GlobalG.A.P., ISO 22000 and more.

Problem solved: Traceability and certification requirements are constantly evolving — notably with the EUDR — and non-compliance means losing markets. Many producers and cooperatives don't know where to start or what it costs. coûte.
