VIP Jeoun Service opens new terminal in Ho, expands transport network
The VIP Jeoun Service has opened a new terminal in Ho to provide passenger transport services between Ho and Accra, as well as Ho and Kumasi, as part of efforts to expand its operations and improve inter-regional connectivity.
VIP Jeoun Service has opened a new terminal in Ho to expand its transport network between Ho, Accra, and Kumasi. The company, which started 17 years ago with a single Kumasi-Accra route, now serves about 85 destinations across Ghana. Mr Adakabre Frimpong Manso, General Manager of VIP, explained that the expansion was driven by passenger demand and the need for reliable transport services in growing regions.
The company has already been operating an international route between Aflao and Elubo, and sees Ho, Hohoe, and Kpando as key locations for its Volta Region expansion. VIP will initially focus on providing passenger comfort with larger vehicles, such as 35-seater executive coaches, and will work with regional authorities to promote tourism in the Volta Region.
The Volta Regional Coordinating Council and the Volta Regional Minister expressed their support for VIP's expansion plans, noting that improved transport connectivity would facilitate economic activities in the region. VIP's Business Development Manager highlighted the significance of opening the Ho terminal, as the company had long considered expanding into the Volta Region.
VIP currently operates in over 85 destinations across Ghana, with Accra as its main base and more than 350 buses dispatched daily. The National Road Safety Authority has assured VIP that it will ensure the company complies with road safety regulations, including the use of the relay-driving system for long-distance journeys.
