According to the president, the Business Resource Centres (BRCs) were established through the Ministry of Trade and Industry as part of efforts to promote its industrialization drive.
He said his administration has also developed Industrial Parks and Special Economic Zones.
Speaking at the 2nd National Conference on the African Continental Free Trade Area, at the Accra International Conference Centre, President Akufo-Addo said his government has implemented various innovative and strategic interventions to promote and expand production and value addition.
President Akufo-Addo continued, “Ghana, like many African countries, is blessed with an abundance of resources. However, over the years, we have not been able to translate our resource wealth into the much-needed growth and development we desire, leaving our economy, still, in a fragile and unfulfilled state. The AfCFTA provides an enormous potential for trade and investments across various sectors which we must exploit.”
