History Recapping: Made in Ghana; A Survey of our Local Industries

In less than six years after independence, Ghana now produces its own safety matches, paints, nails, biscuits, alcoholic drinks, cooking utensils, roofing materials, canned fruits, meat, and fish. Additionally, it has its own chemical factory for producing insecticides and other chemicals.

We also have a brewery, a milk processing plant, and a lorry and bicycle assembly plant.

Overall, we can take pride in over ninety industries, thanks to the government’s comprehensive industrial program.

This program comprises five main sectors: state-owned enterprises, enterprises owned by foreign private interests, enterprises jointly owned by the state and foreign private interests, cooperatives, and, finally, small-scale Ghanaian enterprises.
