The government in Ghana and the country’s textile and garment Industry are working hard to be more attractive to the global markets, according to Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) chief executive officer (CEO) Yofi Grant, who attributed the decline to a surge in Chinese imports, smuggling from China and Vietnam and lack of raw materials.
China’s low-cost products in Ghanaian markets lead to lower demand of domestic textiles, he said.
GIPC is determined to add value to the textiles and garments produced to make it more appealing to the global market, he said.
Grant was speaking at meeting on investment in garments and textiles in Accra that was organised in partnership with the Cotton Development Authority and the Association of Ghana Apparel Manufacturers.
