Cotecna Launches Agri Brochure for EU-Compliant Horticulture

We are proud to announce the launch of our new Agri Brochure for Horticulture, a comprehensive guide designed to help agricultural stakeholders navigate the increasing regulatory demands of exporting to the European market. 

With Europe tightening its standards on pesticide use and residue control, producers, exporters, and traders face growing pressure to ensure compliance and maintain quality throughout the supply chain. The brochure highlights our extensive range of inspection, testing, and certification services — designed to meet the evolving requirements of the EU’s Farm to Fork and Biodiversity strategies.

The new brochure outlines practical solutions for exporters, including:

• Pesticide Residue Analysis tailored for EU compliance, conducted by trusted laboratories like Fitosoil in Spain and Nofalab in the Netherlands
• Integrated Pest Management (IPM) support and advice for sustainable practices
• Batch-by-batch certification and traceability to streamline customs clearance
• Full survey documentation and quality control services for exporters

Fitosoil and Nofalab bring decades of experience and cutting-edge capabilities in agri-food testing, with accreditations under ISO/IEC 17025 and ENAC. Their strategic locations and global reach strengthen our mission to provide end-to-end agricultural solutions across key horticultural markets. Cotecna Kenya’s role as a regional hub offers localized support to African exporters seeking to meet European standards and unlock new market opportunities.
