John Colin Villars, Managing Director of Camelot Ghana Limited, explains what are the company’s main competitive advantages.

“We have been doing this for close to 40 years, evolving from a business forms manufacturer into security documents. We have pioneered in terms of creating documents and assessing the needs of various tiers of government and society for specific document solutions. That leadership role has always been there in that we try to stay ahead of the pack by using the global best practice. We attend all the best exhibitions and fairs in North America and Europe so we are in touch with changing dimensions in our space. That and our corporate governance attitude have given us an edge. For example, we are the only ISO certified company in our space. We stay ahead with the latest technology regarding paper fibers, inks, holograms and all the technology we require in our space. We tend to also have very good relations with the best players globally in this area. For example, we have talked about the possibility of rolling out an ePassport solution. This is something that is missing in the subregion. To be able to do that, we have brought on players in a large consortium, big names like KBA. KBA-NotaSys in Switzerland is the largest company in the world involved in bank notes in that 90% of bank notes printed globally are printed on KBA machines. If you are attached to such a globally profound partner, that tells you the sort of affiliations that you want to make to have an impact in this part of the continent. So, in that regard, we try to stay abreast with the latest technologies and see how best we can adopt them here if they are required or relevant”, says John Colin Villars.
