NB:

• Bromangol is the only quality inspection private company authorised by Angolan government (Servicos Nacionais de Alfandega) to perform quality inspections (microbiology + chemistry & physics analysis) for all food consignments on arrival. 
• Apparently no other laboratory performing such analysis (or/and standards of quality under ISO/IEC17025 certification) are operational in the country. HOWEVER AS OF 10/10/2017 BY DRECREE PRESEDENTIAL WAS ANNOUNCED THE END OF BROMANGOL MONOPOLY THEREFORE, MARKET OPEN FOR OUTSIDE PRIVATE INVESTMENTS IN THIS AREA.
• Main Superintendent companies in Angola as follows:
  • Bureau Veritas
  • SGS
  • Cotecna
  • Intertek

In line with the above the superintendent companies who can perform quality surveys are until now only supported by outside country labs however with end of the monopoly of Bromangol is likely that as details of the new Angola Government policies are known,  is expected more private companies/state institutions or companies investing in the sector.
