VERLINDE organised a stand at the Promote Trade Show in Yaoundé (Cameroon) aimed at seeking partners, integrators and distributors of manual or electrically driven lifting equipment on a local basis to develop markets embracing the building industry, communication networks, port and even petrochemical infrastructures.

VERLINDE made its contribution to the Pavilion of France by exhibiting electrically powered wire rope hoists and chain hoists together with a wide range of manual hoists. There was a meeting with Cameroon's economy minister and a media campaign was launched in the local and national press .
