Kwesi Nyamekye
The
Association of Ghana Industries (AGI) has lamented the rate at which Ghanaians
patronise foreign products.

Addressing
a press conference (which was monitored by the News Hunter Magazine) in Sunyani, capital of the Brong Ahafo region, the Vice
Chairman for the Ashanti/Brong Ahafo regional branch of the Association of
Ghana Industries (AGI), Kwesi Nyamekye stressed that it is time for Ghanaians
to change their strong taste and perception about foreign products.

“Ghanaians
should change their perception about foreign products. Let’s have a strong
taste…and patronise made in Ghana products. Most of the locally manufactured
products are very quality if you compare them to the foreign ones,” he
asserted.

Mr
Kwesi Nyamekye averred that the Association will do whatever it can to help
promote made in Ghana products.

He
revealed that the 2018 edition of the Industry and Technology Fair (INDUTECH)
will be hosted by the Ashanti/Brong Ahafo regional branch of the
association—which will be held at the Heroes Park located at the Baba Yara
Sports Stadium in Kumasi.

Activities
for the Trade Fair (2018 INDUTECH) will start from October 24 to October 28,
2018.

Mr
Nyamekye called on all business owners to partake and exhibit their products.
He
assured that security at the venue will be very tight.

According
to him, this year’s trade fair themed: “Accelerating industry growth in Ghana,
exhibiting what we have” is being partnered by the Ministry of Trade and
Industries and the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).

The
Ashanti/Brong Ahafo AGI Vice Chairman appealed to corporate society to
partner/sponsor the association to have a successful event.

He
emphasised that their doors are always open for others who have an interest in
partnering with them—as they aim at promoting made in Ghana products and
advocating for the growth of Ghanaian businesses and industries.
