DEİK/Türkiye - Cameroon Business Council was established in 2014 with the purpose of improving bilateral business relations. The Business Council organizes business forums, business delegations’ visit, meetings and seminars in order to fulfill its mission. Council`s main task is to bring Turkish and domestic businesspeople together in order to identify business opportunities and turn them into concrete business partnerships.
This round table which brought together representatives of textile, agriculture, construction, logistics and digital technologies sectors was convened to discuss and evaluate important business and investment opportunities between both countries in line with the ongoing efforts by both countries and business councils to supercharge trade volumes between the Republics of Türkiye and Cameroon to up to $400 million.
