Black Star Experience to publish annual Ghana Fashion Industry Report from 2027

Next year, The Black Star Experience Secretariat will commence publishing an Annual Ghana Fashion Industry Report. This announcement was made by the event's coordinator, Rex Omar, during the 2026 Black Star Fashion Summit in Accra. The report aims to provide "credible data, insights and analysis" to enhance understanding of the fashion industry's size, structure, opportunities, and challenges.

Omar, a renowned highlife star and fashion champion for many years, believes this will attract necessary investments and aid development. Attendees at the summit included Ghana's Tourism Minister, Hon. Abla Dzifa Gomashie, among other high-profile figures. This initiative aligns with the Black Star Experience, which seeks to position Ghana's creative industries as significant drivers of national development.

The fashion value chain, from weaving communities to digital marketing, creates jobs and sustains livelihoods across the country. Furthermore, The Black Star Experience Secretariat will recognize individuals who have significantly contributed to Ghana's fashion industry, often without adequate recognition.
