The Ghana Export Promotion Authority (GEPA) has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting small and medium enterprises (SMEs) through its partnership with Citi FM and Channel One TV’s 2025 This Is Ghana Exhibition.
Speaking on Channel One TV’s Breakfast Daily on Monday, August 25, Alexander Dadzawa, Project Director at GEPA, stressed that the Authority views the exhibition as more than just a trade fair. He described it as a strategic platform to discover new businesses, promote Ghanaian products, and educate entrepreneurs on meeting export standards.
He described the event as a game-changing opportunity for Ghanaian creativity and innovation to gain visibility.
Mr. Dadzawa explained that GEPA’s presence at the exhibition will provide entrepreneurs with direct access to expert guidance on export processes, product certification, and international market opportunities. He emphasised that This Is Ghana is not only a marketplace but also a hub for learning and business growth.
“We have agreed to be a partner of ‘This Is Ghana’ exhibition for the single purpose that we want to use it also to educate the Ghanaian public a lot more about the necessity to export made-in-Ghana products and what it will take for any SME to do this. We are also going to use that opportunity to scout for new companies and products.
“We cannot pretend that we are familiar with all the production of Ghanaian products going on in Ghana, and so that platform brings a lot more companies on board to explore. So when we go there and we partner, we will be able to spot new companies that are not registered with GEPA, we assess their products, if they meet the export requirement, bingo, we are in for business.
“We are going to have a GEPA booth at the event, which is going to be an information delivery booth where anybody who is interested in getting information on the export market can come, and we will help them. We will register them,” he stated.
The This Is Ghana Exhibition is scheduled for September 6–7, 2025, at the Efua Sutherland Children’s Park in Accra. Organised by Citi FM and Channel One TV, it is billed as Ghana’s largest showcase of homegrown products and services, bringing together traditional crafts, modern innovations, and cutting-edge technologies.
With live demonstrations, interactive showcases, and networking opportunities, the exhibition is expected to attract thousands of visitors, including industry leaders, investors, policymakers, and international buyers.
Gates open at 10:00 a.m. daily, promising a vibrant atmosphere that celebrates Ghanaian creativity while driving business growth and export competitiveness.
