An Australian company, Atlantic
Group, plans to build a cocoa bean processing unit in the southern Cameroonian
town of Kribi, reliable sources disclosed on Monday.
The information was revealed in a
call for expression of interest published on March 14, 2016, which invites
companies to bid for the implementation of this project initiated by Atlantic
Cocoa Corporation (ACC), a local subsidiary of Atlantic Group.
According to the promoters, the
“setting up of an industrial cocoa bean processing unit is part of the
objectives of the government to promote cocoa processing to the tune of 50 per
cent of national production, in order to retain a significant portion of the
added value of the country’s strategic agricultural sector.”
Cameroon, whose average cocoa
production is around 230,000 tons, locally processes only 25 per cent of its
production, a volume that the country intends to double by 2020.
This will be the first Cameroonian
experience of Atlantic Group, a company specializing in the catering industry.

Cameroonian scammer arrested in Montreal (canada
The Sûreté du Québec announced Wednesday the arrest of an alleged fraudster specialist of a scenario called "Black money scam", in which victims are invited to participate in the cleaning of soiled banknotes, then are robbed during the operation. Cyrille Ngogang, 49 years old, was caught red-handed in downtown Montreal Tuesday afternoon. He appeared in court this morning to be charged with fraud and breach of commitment. The man is not in his first trouble with the law: he was previously arrested by the SQ on 19 January for charges related to the same scheme, and had been able to resume its freedom under strict conditions pending his trial. There are several variants of the 'Black money' scenario, but all involve a so-called batch of cash that has been stained with a dye or colouring substance. Scammers ask their victim to provide money to clean the hoard.
