The Ghana National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GNCCI) is calling on government to deploy innovative policy decisions that could inspire an active local presence in the booming retail business and in the broader interest of boosting the patronage and consumption of locally-produced products.
According to the Chamber’s president, Clement Osei Amoako, the wholesale and retail sector will be critical to the promotion of made-in-Ghana goods hence the need for strategic actions to attract local entrepreneurs to that space.
Speaking at the maiden edition of the Made in Ghana Summit (MIGS 2022) in Accra, he said the current economic dispensation requires policymakers to integrate the wholesale and retail sectors into the nation’s economic development programme.
This, he said, would offer great potential for future Ghana’s industrialisation agenda, improved manufacturing, job and wealth creation, as well as major benefits for consumers, traders, logistics and transport investors.
