New Ghana-Jamaica Business Partnerships Being Pursued

• The newly formed Ghana Jamaica Chamber of Commerce [GhanJacc] says it will be providing avenues for Jamaican companies to explore how to expand to Ghana. According to Derrick Cobbinah, President of GhanJacc, there are companies in Jamaica that could provide solutions to problems in Ghana and vice versa.
• In keeping with that, he revealed in an interview with Radio Jamaica News that two "big" trade missions are being planned, one from Ghana to Jamaica and the other from Jamaica to Ghana. He highlighted there will also be monthly networking events to create awareness in terms of joining the Chamber.
• Another area of emphasis will be the market entry service, which is key as many companies out there would be looking at moving over to Ghana, or vice versa. In that regard, Mr. Cobbinah said the chamber will guide its members on how to set up shops in both countries, with a "Doing business in Ghana and Doing business in Jamaica" document being prepared to make the process less difficult. This document is expected to provide guidance, in meeting "the right distributors and the right suppliers”.
