GEXIM, Foreign Affairs Ministry to champion industrialisation

THE Ghana Export–Import Bank (GEXIM) has partnered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration to champion Ghana’s industrialisation agenda by promoting and creating market access for Made-In-Ghana products and services globally.

The Deputy Chief Executive Officer of GEXIM, responsible for Banking, Rosemary Beryl Archer, led a team from the bank to present assorted Made-In-Ghana products of their clients and other Ghanaian entrepreneurs to the ministry.

The items include food and ingredients, beverages, skin and beauty care products, textiles, apparel, garments, leather footwear, slippers and many others.

In a release issued by the bank, it said the presentation followed a similar one by the Bank in March 2022 on the occasion of Ghana's 65th independence anniversary celebration. 

It said the bank presented Made-In-Ghana products which were distributed to selected Ghanaian missions abroad for promotion and to explore avenues for improved packaging and state-of-the-art equipment to support Ghana’s industrialisation agenda.

Role of Ghanaian missions 

The Deputy Chief Executive Officer of GEXIM, Rosemary Beryl Archer, underscored the role of Ghanaian missions around the world in assisting to increase Ghanaian exports globally, promoting trade and commerce as well as attracting investment for Ghanaian businesses and their products.

“It is important to deepen our existing cordial relations and we are here today to present these uniquely packaged and innovative Made-In-Ghana products to be sent to the Ghanaian missions.” 

“We believe a strategic collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration has the potential to unlock unending opportunities for Ghanaian businesses and lead to economic growth,” she said. 

“We are happy to work with the ministry to replicate around the world various forms of our GEXIM MIG Town, a one-stop-shop for everything Made-In-Ghana products,” she added.

Sustaining local business 

The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration in charge of Political and Economic matters, Kwaku Ampratwum-Sarpong, expressed his delight about the innovation employed by the Ghanaian entrepreneurs in packaging their products to meet international standards.

He further lauded GEXIM for investing in Ghanaian businesses and its campaign in driving awareness for the patronage of Made-In-Ghana products globally which he indicated would be of economic benefit to the country.­
