Ghana has been ranked 8th among Africa's top 10 manufacturing countries, according to a report by The African Exponent, an analytical business information source for entrepreneurs and potential investors in Africa.
The report stated that Ghana's long-term focus on value-added manufacturing in agriculture and cocoa has transformed its industrial landscape.
Again, the "One District One Factory" initiative has fostered Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) growth, while established firms like Kasapreko and Fan Milk extend Ghana's manufacturing reach internationally. According to the report, within the last decade, a few countries have stood out for hosting the largest manufacturing companies in Africa, both in scale and influence. South Africa came 1st followed by Egypt and Nigeria in 2nd and 3rd place, respectively.
Morocco (4th), Kenya (5th), Algeria (6th), Ethiopia (7th), Tunisia (9th), and Zambia (10th) followed suit.
