Building momentum and coordination to spur Ghana’s industrial and economic transformation ambitions

The UK–Ghana Growth Partnership remains a top priority across government and industry. Ghana JET recently convened key public and private sector stakeholders to align on a strategic pathway and immediate actionable steps to unlock investment and jobs in priority manufacturing sectors.

There is clear cross-government commitment to:
> Drive broad-based industrialisation across priority manufacturing sectors to enhance self-reliance and strengthen supply chains amidst global developments, notably new 15% tariffs from the US.
> Build a robust policy and incentive framework to ensure competitiveness and sustainability to attract strategic investments and deepen local value chains.

What’s next?
To maintain momentum and champion further strategic planning and cross-government alignment, the UK’s Ghana JET is helping to establish a technical subcommittee with MoTAI, GIPC, and the 24-Hour Economy Secretariat.
The focus of these sessions will be to identify and unblock constraints to strengthen the business environment, unlock manufacturing investments, and create jobs in the priority manufacturing sectors.
