President John Dramani Mahama officially opened the Northshore Apparel garment factory in Savelugu, Northern Region of Ghana. The project, part of the government's 24-Hour Economy program, aims to boost the region's industrial base and provide sustainable employment opportunities for the youth. Upon completion, the factory will create over 10,000 jobs and operate multiple shifts, reducing migration of young people to southern Ghana.
Of the workforce, 80 percent will be young women who previously sought menial jobs in the south. Phased construction began with 50 sewing lines, and the final phase will include a fabric mill and cotton outgrower scheme to export finished garments. The facility, located on a 50-acre campus, incorporates sustainable features like solar power, bio-digesters, and a water reservoir.
The Ghana Export-Import Bank, the Ghana Export-Import Bank, and the Presidential Advisor on the 24-Hour Economy Programme praised the project for its potential to transform northern Ghana's economy and provide local residents with opportunities that previously required migration.
