The ICA has signed and exchanged a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Supima in June at the ACSA Convention in Arizona, US to formally acknowledge the alliance and cooperation between organisations.
This MoU will help to foster greater cooperation between the ICA and Supima and enable us to work more closely on a number of shared goals, which include promoting sanctity of contract; training and visit programmes; information exchange and dissemination; diplomatic initiatives; testing and quality issues.
ICA President, Kim Hanna, explains; “I am really pleased that we can add Supima to the ICA’s growing list of alliances. Along with our existing MoUs, this latest addition will strengthen the relationships between organisations through increased communication and collaboration, which will ultimately help make trading safer.”
The ICA also has existing MoUs with;
• Better Cotton
• China Cotton Association (CCA)
• China National Cotton Exchange (CNCE)
• Cotton Association of India (CAI)
• Aid by Trade Foundation with its initiative Cotton Made in Africa (CmiA)
