Ghana’s Ambassador to China, H.E. Kojo Bonsu, has called on Ghanaian businesses to secure exhibition space at the China Import and Export Fair, or Canton Fair, to showcase industrial and value-added ‘Made in Ghana’ products to the global market.
Ambassador Bonsu made the call during a working visit to the China Foreign Trade Centre at the Canton Fair Complex in Guangzhou on Thursday, June 25, 2026. He was received by Ms. Zhu Yong, Director General of the Centre, and was accompanied by Mr. Sidney Kwesi Ellis, Consul General of the Republic of Ghana in Guangzhou.
Ambassador Bonsu said the next phase of engagement must shift from raw commodity trade to finished goods. He urged the Centre to support Ghanaian manufacturers to exhibit at future editions, noting that many Ghanaian products could benefit from China’s zero-tariff policy for least developed countries.
‘Beyond raw materials, which are already traded between Ghana and China, we must exhibit processed minerals, processed foods, ceramics, textiles, auto components, and other manufactured Ghanaian products,’ Ambassador Bonsu said.
