GIPC, industry players discuss vast business potential in Ghana’s manufacturing sector

The Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) on August 11, 2022, held its second CEOs  Breakfast Meeting for the year, with focus on the manufacturing sector. 

The event availed a unique opportunity for key state and private stakeholders to delve  deeper into Ghana’s manufacturing sector and its vast business potential. 

It also spearheaded a discourse on the challenges of the sector, and allowed participants to  exchange innovative ideas on how to advance the sector, as well as agree on some  recommendations for policy formulation.  

Ghana’s manufacturing sector has been a significant source of its economic growth in recent  times. The sector’s progress is attributed to government’s aggressive industrialization drive,  with accompanying initiatives such as; the ten-point industrial agenda, the Automotive  Development Policy, One District-One Factory policy, Integrated Aluminium Industry  project, and the Ghana CARES programme. 

Nonetheless, the current instabilities in the global business ecosystem, due to noticeable  political and health crisis, has significantly affected the manufacturing sector. 

Owing to the disruption in value-chains and other industrial challenges, the CEO of GIPC, Mr.  Yofi Grant said it has become more crucial to work collectively to find answers to problems  besetting Ghana’s manufacturing sector. Underscoring the role of the private sector in  driving industrial growth, he noted that partnerships between government and private  players, is the right step to finding the needed solutions.

He opined at the event that: “we recognize the urgent need to embrace the private sector as  partners in undertaking corrective actions, that can move the country forward”, adding that  “Ghana’s business potential remain enormous, and government is committed to creating an  enabling environment for all investors to fully leverage the opportunities”. 

Corroborating Mr. Grant’s assertion, the Head of the One District – One Factory (1D1F)  initiative at the Ministry of Trade and Industry, Mr. Kofi Addo, also noted that inasmuch as  the current global business landscape is fraught with some challenges, the opportunities in Ghana remain endearing. He encouraged the private sector to make optimal use of the  country’s resources.  

Taking his to turn to address the audience, the President of the Association of Ghana  Industries (AGI), Dr. Humphrey Ayim-Darke, said the government and the private sector will  have to work together in these critical times, to address the manufacturing industry’s issues.  He mentioned that, more can be done to raise the confidence level of investors in the sector. 

The event further allowed for a deeper all-inclusive debate on actionable solutions for the  sector. Key among the suggestions tabled include; the need for government to review the  general tax regime; the need for government to deliberately target and support ailing  industries; the need for stakeholders to develop the industrial value-chain from the  grassroot, and the need for a review of deregulation policies. 

The CEO’s Breakfast Meeting is a GIPC-initiated event, organized periodically, to bring  together CEOs and business moguls, as well as government authorities, to deliberate on  pertinent issues affecting business and investments in Ghana.
