Rising cost of production
The Director of Marketing of the GCGL, Mr Franklin Sowa, said the decision to revise prices of the newspaper brands was due to the increases in the company’s production costs.

“Our operational costs have gone up over the years, but we have not increased prices since 2014,” he explained.
