COTECNA INSPECTION
S.A. was incorporated in 1974 in Fribourg
and 1975 in Geneva, Switzerland. Initially,
COTECNA specialised in the inspection
of a variety of goods on behalf of private
traders and governmental entities involved
in international trade. In 1984, COTECNA
INSPECTION S.A. was appointed by the
Nigerian government for the Preshipment
Inspection of the country’s imports,
in order to curb the foreign exchange
evasion that was draining the country’s
resources. Since then, COTECNA has specialised
in government mandated services which
have evolved towards reducing the appeal
for importers of evading foreign exchange
and increasing Customs revenue.
Currently,
the COTECNA Group has a combined workforce
of about 4,000 personnel in over 100 offices
and holds 13 government inspection scheme
contracts.
The COTECNA
Group is a pioneer in areas such as Risk
Management, Destination
Inspection and
X-Ray Scanners, Customs modernisation
programmes, Training and creation of referential
Price Databases. For a full description
