The Turkish Ambassador – H.E Ambassador Volkan ISIKCI together with The Founders and General Managers of Voya Cameroon – The Turkish Visa Company, Istanbul Restaurant and Istanbul Mobilier had a power breakfast meeting with The Honorary Consul of Türkiye in Douala – Cameroon and The Executive Director of the Cameroon Türkiye Business Council in Douala yesterday where they discussed plans for 2022 for Türkiye-Cameroon businesses.

This year, CTBC intends, among others, to coordinate another trade mission for Cameroon Investors to Türkiye, plan a visit of manufacturing cities for Cameroon entrepreneurs in Manufacturing and lead other initiatives that will give its members a more successful business year.

After this breakfast meeting, the team proceeded to visit the Douala Grand Mall where they visited the Turkish retail Manufacturer and store LC Waikiki. Waikiki's interior design was done by Mr. Mehmet – CEO Istanbul Mobilier which located in Yaounde and is working on plans to expand to Douala. Mr. Mehmet is also working on the interior design of another Turkish brand which will open pretty soon – DeFacto. Mr. Mehmet also works on homes, kitchens, shops, offices, just to name a few.
