APPENDIX E: U.S. AND COUNTRY CONTACTS
The American Business Information Center (ABIC) located in the Embassy in Yaounde is connected by Internet at usa.embassy@camnet.cm. Through the Department of Commerce's Export Assistance Centers in the United States, the Embassy ABIC, along with the Douala Embassy Branch ABIC, provides a variety of services to assist U.S. firms intending to do business in Cameroon. Services include: Customized Market Analyses (CMAs are in-depth studies of the market for a specific product or service, with analyses of the existing competition and prospective marketing strategies); Agent/Distributor Service (ADSs provide identification, research, and assessment of up to six potential agents or distributors for a product or service) and Gold Key Service (a package of contact services for American business visitors to ensure a productive and efficient visit). The Embassy also offers International Company Profile (ICP) service to verify the bona fides of Cameroonian partners. In addition, a Regional Counselor for Commercial Affairs of the Foreign Commercial Service located in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire and an Agricultural Attaché of the Foreign Agricultural Service located in Lagos, Nigeria provide expertise to those looking to do business in Cameroon. Country Commercial Guides are available for U.S. exporters from the National Trade Data Bank's CD-ROM or via the Internet. Please contact STAT-USA at 1-800-STAT-USA for more information.
