The questions we are asked
Is the cold chain covered in detail?
Yes: control points, readings, response to deviations and traceability documentation, which is what a buyer checks.
Is export to Europe feasible?
The international trade track sets out the documentary requirements and the steps to take, along with the preparation they call for.
Can I train from a coastal area?
Yes, entirely remotely, with content readable offline — Boffa, Boké and Kamsar each have their own dedicated page.
