Amie,

This is very good and l will contact one of my associates in Denmark who has 
been trying to get a reliable source of smoked fish to import. Please tell me 
about prices including shipping to the U.S and Europe. For Europe, you guys 
will need an EEC license, and l do know there is a special license needed in 
Gambia to export this but l am sure you guys are on top of that one. Please 
also let me know what other vegetables you cna export. l hope that the web 
addresses l gave you were of help. l have been tied up in some business deals 
for my company, and this has kept me completely tied up.

Regards,
Jabou Joh
 
 Dear listers
 
 Gamsem , Gambians for self-employment, a local Gambian apex organisation
 for grass-root cooperatives has some fish products for export to the
 none market. This product is a very high  quality type of smoked
 cat-fish (kunkulengo or kong) prepared at the organisationīs
 fish-processing center in Tanji, where a month long training is being
 held
 for fisher-women groups affiliated to Gamsem. Equipped with solar dryers
 and other simple appropriate tech methods, the centerīs products far
 surpasses ordinarily smoked fish in taste-appeal, food quality,  and
 above
 all, hygiene and longevity. Gutted and cleaned thoroughly before being
 put
 on the oven racks, the fish are firmly preserved from exposure to dust,
 flies and other insects. The idea is to steadily out.-compete
 traditional
 methods of fish-smoking. But to keep this project viable our marketing
 assessment has surveyed that we need to export about 20% inorder to be
 able to make it viable a the same time accessible to rural folk
 especially
 during the coming season of toil and hunger. We therefore are appealing
 to
 G-lers in none countries who may want to import small quantities just
 for trial resale to the Gambian and other African communities in USA,
 Norway, Switzerland, Middle Eastern countries, Nigeria etc. Please
 contact
 us directly for further information.
 Box 996, Banjul, Gambia, tel/fax 220 373080 and email address as in
 above.
 
 Regards
 Amie Sabally
 Marketing assistant >>
