Headline Inflation Falls to 11.5% in August, Beating Gov’t’s 11.9% End-Year Target

Ghana’s headline inflation eased further to 11.5% in August 2025, down from 12.1% in July, according to new data released by the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS).

The figure, which is the lowest recorded in almost four years, marks the eighth consecutive month of decline and falls below government’s end-of-year target of 11.9%, signaling firmer price stability.

Month-on-month, overall prices contracted by 1.3%, providing households some relief from prolonged cost-of-living pressures.

Presenting the data on Wednesday, September 3, Government Statistician Dr Alhassan Iddrisu disclosed that food inflation slowed to 14.8% in August from 15.1% in July, with food prices dropping by 2.5% within the month. Non-food inflation also moderated to 8.7% from 9.5%, with prices edging down by 0.1%.

Inflation for goods declined to 13.9% from 14.2% in July, with overall prices of goods falling by 1.6%. Imported inflation eased faster than local inflation, supported by a stronger Cedi and lower global cost pressures.

Despite the national decline, GSS noted significant disparities across regions, driven by variations in supply chains, transport costs, and local market conditions. Analysts caution that these differences must be closely tracked to ensure no region is excluded from the disinflation process.
