Original Research Article Cameroon is endowed with abundant water resources including a coastal area of 402km length and a suitable hydrographic network, where occur intensive fishing and aquaculture activities. While the industrial sector is well structured in terms of enterprises, the small scale fisheries (maritime and inland) though composed with more actors, operate informally in remote areas usually with poor landing infrastructures, using a multitude and various fishing gears, with limited accountability, making it difficult for the country to manage and reap the benefits from that sector and its real contribution to the economy. It was estimated that, barely 457 109 413 CFAF, (7.6 %) of taxes were levied from a total turnover of 23 717 462 831 CFAF generated by the four main actors involved in fisheries Meke et al., [1]. This paper, based on secondary data and from a socio economic survey carried out in 2020, examines the case of CECOPAK as a model of support facilities to fisheries development activities in Cameroon. Findings of the study indicate that, the level of taxes perceived is better compared to other fishing camps. Structuring these main individual actors businesses into SMEs with appropriate landing infrastructures will better of the sector‟s contribution to the economy.
