EuroCham Cambodia, GMAC sign pact to better support European brands
25 Mar 22 1 min read
The MoU will remain in force for an indefinite duration and defines a clear set of joint actions by the two associations for the coming years.
EuroCham will set up a public training programme with the Cambodian Garment Training Institute (CGTI) in Phnom Penh, focused on sustainable textile sourcing, occupational safety and health (OSH) and compliance.
Germany’s Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) will fund the training initiative, according to a report in a Cambodian newspaper.
Other areas of cooperation include addressing sustainable production-related issues and environmental awareness in the production chain, exploring opportunities of Industry 4.0 and assisting European brands with responsible sourcing from Cambodia.
EuroCham recently formed its ‘garment and manufacturing’ sectorial committee and anticipates the release of the Cambodian government’s new five-year development strategy for the garment, footwear and travel goods industry.
