    Did you know...

    • Cameroon’s Gulf of Guinea location provides strategic access to the Central African market, making it a key shipping hub. The Port of Douala, the largest in the country, handles most maritime activities for Cameroon and landlocked nations like Chad and the Central African Republic.
    • Cameroon’s essential ports face challenges due to inadequate road infrastructure, particularly during the rainy season when access to rural areas becomes almost impossible.
    • The Kribi Deep Sea Port, completed in 2014, was designed to reduce congestion at Douala and accommodate bigger ships. It is now an important asset for Cameroon’s maritime industry, linking the country to international trade routes.
