摘　　要：This article shows out the situation of cold chain in sub-Saharan countries through an investigation carry out in 34 cold stores in Cameroon. The cold chain in sub-Saharan countries still remains uncertain. The stacking conditions are hardly respected and are especially limited on temperature control. The equipments of transportation of refrigerated foodstuff and the display cases made for the selling of perishable foodstuff are poorly used. And, many consumers do not have domestic refrigerators to store products. The main reasons for this situation are： poverty, unawareness, unqualified refrigeration technicians and finally an insufficient political policy. Nevertheless, some solutions could be outlined： sensitisation and training at different levels, an international support based on the training and the respect of cold chain norms, the promotion of traditional food conservation techniques （drying, smoking, salting） which are more accessible and appropriate to local feeding styles.
