Investment opportunities in Ghana are 'growing exponentially'

The stable democratic atmosphere and the discovery of oil reserves in 2010 have made Ghana the fastest growing economy in the West African Sub region. "Millions of dollars are being realised by private entrepreneurs...and in the past decade there has been an improvement in Ghana's infrastructure with better prospects for growth still to come." says Kenneth Ofori, business manager for Devtraco Plus, a luxury real estate company in Ghana.


"I have seen the investment opportunities in Ghana growing exponentially" says Andrew Kumm, a director at RED-i (Real Estate Development Interactive).

Opportunities to Invest in Ghana

A spokesperson for Growth Green Agriculture Plc, a UK based agricultural investments company specialising in emerging markets, said "there are opportunities to invest in Ghana. Growth Green Agriculture acts as consultant on green and socially responsible investments to the private and institutional investor community in Europe, and we see attractive potential for those looking to invest in Ghana".

Agriculture in Ghana is an untapped opportunity on the African continent. In 2010, agricultural growth was 4-5%.  Currently the growth rate has increased to 6% and is expected to continue to increase. Ghana has the potential for agricultural business to develop into a multi billion dollar industry. The major stakeholders and the government are looking for ways to partner with investors outside the country to improve agri-business through modern technology, to ensure food security in meeting international requirements.

Over two thirds of the land in Ghana is fertile, and needs little or no fertilizers/chemical to grow crops in large quantities. The government has an interest in agribusiness and is ready to support any credible investor who will bring improvements.
