It intends, legally, to help managers and their customers in the event of theft or loss of equipment, through procedures with the competent structures, confided Ibrahim Barry.

‘With this office, there will be enough changes in the management of parking lots and customers will be compensated in the event of damage,’ he said.

The representative of the minister in charge of trade, Tassambédo Pamoussa, welcomed the coordination approach which, according to him, will contribute to better structuring of the parking sector.

Mr. Tassambédo invited parking lot managers to conduct their business with respect for the consumer.

‘We want them to work with professionalism and patriotism while respecting the prices established by the ministry,’ concluded Pamoussa Tassambédo.
