SGS Marks Third Consecutive PVoC Program Renewal in Gabon

BAAR, SWITZERLAND / AGILITYPR.NEWS / June 22, 2026 / SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, reports that it has been awarded a third consecutive mandate by the Gabonese government to deliver pre-export verification of conformity (PVoC) services.


This latest renewal marks over ten years of collaboration with Gabonese authorities and reinforces SGS’s long-term commitment to supporting safe trade and product compliance in the country.


Since the implementation of the PVoC program, SGS has supported the Agence Gabonaise de Normalisation (AGANOR) in advancing consumer protection, trade security and the quality and compliance of imported products.


The renewal reflects the confidence of the Gabonese authorities in SGS’s technical expertise, consistent service delivery and commitment to transparency, all built on a foundation of mutual trust.


The continuation of the program also highlights its positive contribution to the national economy and the shared objective of strengthening compliance frameworks in Gabon. SGS continues to support these efforts through innovative solutions, including digital inspection processes and enhanced, service-oriented support to stakeholders.
