Food producers must improve presentation of local foods to attract consumers – Chef

Head Chef at Labadi Beach Hotel, Akwetey Ahingwah, has said Ghanaian chefs and food producers must improve the presentation and packaging of local foods if they want to attract more consumers and compete with imported products.

Using carrots as an example, he said consumers could be attracted to imported produce because of its packaging, even when local produce may remain fresher for longer.

He believes local food could become more appealing if producers and chefs adopted better packaging and presentation.
