The Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC), Simon Madjie, has reaffirmed the Centre’s commitment to leveraging Ghana’s 24-hour economy policy to drive investment and boost export-led growth.
He made this known at the launch of the 2025 Non-Traditional Exports (NTEs) Statistics Report and Exhibition organised by the Ghana Export Promotion Authority (GEPA) in Accra, held under the theme “Driving Economic Transformation Through Strategic Export Diversification.”
The event brought together stakeholders from government, financial institutions, and the private sector to discuss strategies for strengthening Ghana’s export diversification agenda.
Mr. Madjie noted that sustained investment remains critical to export growth, adding that Ghana’s estimated 2.6 million businesses present significant potential to expand participation in global markets.
GEPA announced that Ghana’s non-traditional exports reached US$5.006 billion in 2025, representing a 30.7% increase over 2024, with over 1,200 companies exporting more than 500 products to more than 150 markets.
As part of the programme, Mr. Madjie toured exhibition stands showcasing Made-in-Ghana and export-ready products, including cashew, shea butter, cocoa derivatives, fresh produce, and textiles.
He encouraged exporters to prioritise value addition, improve standards, and explore new markets to strengthen Ghana’s global competitiveness.
