Ghana’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom and Ireland, H.E. Sabah Zita Benson, has announced that plans are underway to establish a Ghana Trade House in the UK to expand market access for Ghanaian products.
She revealed the initiative during an engagement with Ghanaian businesses and partners, emphasising the government’s commitment to strengthening trade ties with the United Kingdom.
According to the High Commissioner, the Ghana Trade House will serve as a dedicated outlet for showcasing and distributing Ghanaian goods, including processed foods, textiles, crafts and other export-ready products.
She explained that the facility is designed to enhance visibility for local producers while providing them with a structured entry point into the competitive UK market.
“I have a plan for a Ghana Trade House, and that is underway. It will give our exporters in Ghana an opportunity for their products to be on the market here in the UK,” she stated.
The initiative forms part of Ghana’s larger effort to deepen economic cooperation with the UK and support small and medium-scale enterprises (SMEs) to access global markets.
Trade experts note that such an outlet could significantly increase exports by offering a reliable distribution channel, reducing marketing costs and improving brand recognition for Ghanaian products abroad.
H.E. Benson highlighted that the Ghana Trade House is not only a commercial project but also a strategic move to strengthen investor confidence.
She noted that the High Commission is working closely with stakeholders, including trade agencies and private sector partners, to ensure the project’s smooth implementation.
The facility, she added, will also promote cultural exchange and showcase Ghana’s rich heritage to international consumers.
The High Commissioner encouraged Ghanaian exporters to prepare to take advantage of the opportunity once the Trade House becomes operational.
She reaffirmed the mission’s dedication to creating pathways for Ghanaian businesses to thrive internationally.
“This is a major step toward expanding our footprint in the UK market, and we are committed to supporting our producers every step of the way,” she said.
