    Hello and welcome to EasyExpat.com!

    Shopping is an Olympic sport for some people, while others just need tips on where to find common goods in Cameroon. Do you like to shop? What is your favorite part of shopping in Cameroon? What is the worst part? Where are your favorite shopping malls or boutiques?

    What should new expats know about finding products in Cameroon? What did you find confusing to find when you moved aboard? Is there a special item you are still looking for?

    Where is the best place to shop for groceries? Do you shop online or ship items from abroad?

    Thank you for sharing your experience!

    Thanks, hopefully useful for expats in Cameroon (it's a shame there is no registry address. How to know that it's in Cameroon?)

    Hello Cyrilexpat,

    To register on the site, just log in (via 'Connexion' link on the top menu) with your Facebook account. Vitrine Boutiques allow you to search for products, shops and addresses. There are usefull features like price conversion to Euros and US Dollars.

    On Vitrine Boutiques, each shop has a private area to list her products, a sort of mini-site. When you browse a shop mini-site, there are 3 main links in the custom shop menu, the home link (Accueil), the products list (Articles) and the contact link (Contact).

    In the contact page of a shop mini-site, you will find all the informations to nkow (or check) that it is in Cameroon.

    Regards
