The Ghana Standards Authority (GSA) has arrested Chinese managers of the mattress manufacturing company Jin Yuan Jia for allegedly resuming operations illegally after the factory was previously shut down in October 2025.
The facility was closed after the Authority determined that the company had failed to obtain the required regulatory approval to operate.
According to the GSA, the shutdown followed laboratory tests conducted on materials and finished products at multiple production sites.
The tests reportedly found that the mattresses and related items did not meet approved specifications and quality standards.
Despite the closure order, the company is said to have resumed production, prompting the Authority to take enforcement action, including the arrest of the foreign managers involved.
The GSA is expected to continue investigations as part of efforts to ensure compliance with national standards and protect consumers from substandard products.
