This new vehicle model aims to offer the versatility of light commercial vehicles while delivering the robustness of heavy-duty trucks. The truck range is designed to cater to a range of industries, including agriculture, retail, logistics, and distribution, by providing different payload capacities to accommodate varying transportation requirements.\n\nThe Chief Executive Officer of Zonda Tec Ghana Limited, Yang Yang, emphasized the importance of Ghana transitioning from a trading-based economy to one centered around engineering and local manufacturing. Yang Yang believes that strengthening local engineering capacity will not only create jobs but also enable the country to manufacture products for export to neighboring nations and international markets. \"As the CEO of Zonda, I strongly advocate for a shift from trading to engineering,\" she noted.\n\nYang Yang explained that Zonda Tec Ghana Limited's local vehicle assembly operations are already playing a significant role in skills development. The company trains Ghanaian engineers with technical expertise from Sinotruk. This initiative goes beyond generating employment; it aims to address the skills gap within Ghana's automotive engineering industry. She further urged the government to support the engineering sector, particularly auto engineering, citing the abundance of human resources in the country.\n\nFurthermore, Yang Yang called upon government institutions, agricultural organizations, logistics providers, and private businesses to collaborate in supporting local assembly and enhancing Ghana's transportation infrastructure.",
