The CEO says significant progress has been made on essential infrastructure
The Chief Executive Officer of Ghana Trade Fair Limited, Dr. Agnes Adu, has announced that the redevelopment of the Ghana Trade Fair site is on track for completion by the end of the year.
This ambitious project includes the construction of a major convention center, which is crucial for enhancing the country’s capacity to host international events and trade fairs.
Dr. Adu noted that “significant progress has been made on essential infrastructure, with 90% of the roads, drainage systems, power supply, water facilities, and data fiber connections already completed.”
“This comprehensive groundwork is critical to ensure that the Trade Fair site meets modern standards and can accommodate a wide range of activities once the redevelopment is finalized,” she added.
In addition to the convention center, the redevelopment plans also include the construction of a hotel, retail spaces, and a data center.
Dr. Adu revealed that the construction of these additional facilities is set to commence in early 2025, further enhancing the site’s capabilities and offering more amenities for visitors and exhibitors.
The redevelopment of the Ghana Trade Fair is a significant step towards revitalizing the country’s trade and exhibition landscape, aiming to attract both local and international businesses.
With the CEO’s assurance of timely completion, stakeholders remain optimistic about the potential economic benefits the revamped Trade Fair will bring to Ghana.
