The Ministry of Trade, Agribusiness, and Industry, led by the sector Minister, Mrs Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, is preparing to organise a high-level national agribusiness dialogue.
The major event, expected to come off in June, is aimed at restructuring and revitalising Ghana’s agribusiness ecosystem.
The dialogue is to provide a national platform where stakeholders across the agribusiness value chain can collaboratively shape the future of the sector by contributing to the development of a National Agribusiness Strategy.
As part of preparations for the strategic engagement, the Minister convened a stakeholder planning session, whichbrought together industry experts, private sector players, financial institutions, policymakers, academia, and development partners.
They shared their insights and strategised to promote growth and prosperity for businesses in the sector.
The dialogue will mark a significant step towards positioning agribusiness as a key driver of economic growth, job creation, and sustainable industrial development in Ghana.
Madam Ofosu-Adjare told the meeting that the National Agribusiness Dialogue would serve as a platform to reset Ghana’s agribusiness sector toward inclusive and sustainable growth.
She commended stakeholders for their commitment to the sector and stated that it was important that the dialogue would generate lasting solutions to the persistent challenges hindering the agribusiness sector.
