It is worth saying that, the chemical authority has a vital role to serve the Egyptian citizen, and to protect from the commercial fraud issues and ensuring that the offered products on the market conform to the standard specifications.

GOEIC is the only body affiliated to the ministry that is available in all border and customs outlets being the safety valve to save the Egyptian product reputation abroad and the local market from entering any low quality products reaching the Egyptian consumer.

The merge came to unify the chemical examination and testing bodies affiliated to the  trade and industry ministry under the umbrella of GOEIC because it has labs in all sectors (industrial – foodstuff- chemicals)and has the ability to help the investors to improve the products quality to satisfy the standard specifications where GOEIC's labs have international accreditation .
