Ghana is boosting its export sector with the launch of the Accra Trade House and Friday Market. The facility will serve as a central hub for Ghanaian products, connecting local producers with international buyers and showcasing “Made-in-Ghana” goods.
The trade house will support Ghana’s existing trade houses in Nairobi, Philadelphia, and London, and pave the way for new ones in Europe, including potential locations in Hamburg, Palermo, and Amsterdam. GEPA CEO Francis Kojo Kwarteng Arthur says the facility will complement trade fairs and buyer-seller engagements, driving export growth.
