Trade Minister pushes for stronger Ghana-Guinea trade and industrial ties
The Minister for Trade, Agribusiness and Industry, Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, has called for stronger economic cooperation between Ghana and Guinea to expand bilateral trade, promote industrial development and boost tourism.
The Ghanaian Minister for Trade, Agribusiness and Industry, Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, has urged for enhanced economic collaboration between Ghana and Guinea. She made this proposal during a meeting with Guinea's Minister for Trade, Industry and Enterprise, Aboubacar Kourocuma, ahead of the signing of the Accra Convention and the UNCITRAL at 60 Symposium in Accra.
Ms Ofosu-Adjare suggested a joint project to renovate and preserve the former home of Ghana’s first President, Dr Kwame Nkrumah, in Guinea. This could serve as a significant cultural and tourism attraction. She also committed to working with Guinea’s standards and metrology institution to align standards and diminish trade barriers.
This move aligns with the goals of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), aiming to facilitate smoother trading between the two nations. Mr Kourocuma appreciated the renewed dedication to cooperation, highlighting how harmonized standards could streamline imports and exports, thereby strengthening bilateral trade relations.
