The Amanokrom Community Centre Park in the Akuapem North Constituency of the Eastern Region, on Saturday morning, saw an unprecedented surge in activity as hundreds of residents, both from the local area and beyond, gathered in a remarkable turnout at the long-awaited "Ofie Market".
The initiative, launched by Member of Parliament(MP) for the area, Samuel Kwabena Awuku (Sammi Awuku), turned the quiet community center into a bustling marketplace filled with vendors, farmers, and eager consumers.
The Ofie Market, which took place on March 29, 2025, is a novel project aimed at tackling post-harvest losses and improving access to fresh, organic produce at affordable prices.
The market, a brainchild of Sammi Awuku, was conceived to address the pressing issues farmers face in the region, including the difficulty of getting their products to market without the interference of middlemen.
