The Ghana Embassy in Senegal is embarking on a
programme to promote made-in-Ghana goods in Dakar, through the participation of Ghanaian companies in fairs being organised by the Senegalese
authorities.
To achieve this objective, the mission is requiring information on the problems encountered by Ghanaians in previous exhibitions in that country.
This was contained in a statement issued by Mr Solomon Korbieh, First Secretary of the Embassy in Dakar on behalf of the Head of the mission, to
Ghana Export Promotion Council, Ghana Investment Promotion Centre, Association of Ghana Industries, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration, Ministry of Trade and Industry and copied to the Ghana News Agency on Saturday.
"The purpose of the request is to enable the mission hold discussions with the appropriate host authorities with a view to eliminating these
problems.
"You may also wish to draw our (Mission) attention to any bilateral or multilateral agreements/conventions to which we may refer in putting our case to the hosts," the statement said.
It said it was the conviction of the mission that elimination of the problems would place Ghanaian exporters in a better position to participate effectively in fairs and exhibitions in Senegal, with a view to expand their markets.
"Mission would also appreciate if a list of exportable Ghanaian products is made available to facilitate its endeavours," the statement said.
