ROMERO PINEDA & ASOCIADOS: AGREEMENT IFC AND SIECA

On February 12, 2015 The International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group and the Secretariat for Economic Integration (SIECA by its abbreviation in Spanish) signed an agreement to work on a project in order to be able to use the regional platform and computer system for obtaining health registrations of food and beverages and mutual recognition by the competent authorities of the Central American region, in order to make more agile the process for obtaining the health registrations and thus encourage the commercialization of these products in the region.

As the project progresses we will be sending more information.

For additional information, please feel free to contact Ms. Marcela Mancía and/or Ms. Pamela Giraldo, in Romero Pineda's Unit of Health Registrations, Intellectual Property Division at (503) 2505-5555 or email: marcela@romeropineda.com and ip5@romeropineda.com. They will be pleased to assist you.
