These companies have a quality certificate whose mission is to help you find goods that meet the specifications,\u201d Mary told Eye Radio.<br \/>\n\u201cThese companies are international companies and they have 10 standards of quality while we have 4. These four companies act as a mediator between the merchants and the factory, where their role is to check and ensure the authenticity and quality of the product,\u201cDealing with these companies allows you to guarantee that your goods will enter the country. There is a misconception among merchants, they think that this certificate is issued by money, and this is not true, but rather it is paid by the factory to the company.\u201d<br \/>\nThe National Bureau of Standards last week warned that the country was feeding on substandard food due to inability to examine imported goods.<br \/>\nThis was also admitted by the chamber of commerce which attributes the import of average commodities to lack of direct access to the international market.<br \/>\nIn November 2021 the Drug and Food Control Authority called on the government to urgently establish a laboratory for testing imported pharmaceutical and food items.<br \/>\nSouth Sudan entirely relies on Kenya and Uganda for most of its imports.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
