Minister for Trade, Agribusiness and Industry, Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, speaking during the inauguration on Wednesday July 9, 2025 charged the board to support the Authority in promoting quality assurance and safeguarding consumer interest in both domestic and international markets.

She also urged the board to ensure standard harmonization for effective trading with other countries under the African Continental Free Trade Area.

“We also want you to work very hard in the area of the African Continental Free Trade Area because it is our best bet.

“I wish to commit that we will work together to enhance the work of the Ghana Standards Authority working with management and staff of Ghana Standards Authority. We believe that the job of protecting the safety of consumers, protecting industry and contributing to the development of this country is our key priority and we must make sure that we work towards that,” he said.
