Accra, Ghana — Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry has strengthened its international presence by opening a new office in Accra, Ghana, providing a gateway for UAE businesses to West Africa’s 250 million consumers.
Hamad Buamim, President and CEO, Dubai Chamber, who was leading a trade mission to Ghana, officially opened the new office in the Ghanaian capital to promote Dubai as an international business hub and strengthen economic and trade ties with Ghana.
The new office in Ghana marks the second office opened in Africa. The first, in Ethiopia, was inaugurated in 2013.
During the two-day trade mission to Ghana, the Dubai Chamber delegation held a private meeting with Kwesi Amissah-Arthur, the Vice President of Ghana, who encouraged increased investment in his country in key sectors, including energy, real estate and agriculture, citing a stable investment climate and democratic credentials.
Amissah-Arthur gave assurances of government support to the Dubai Chamber.
The delegation also participated in a host of other activities, including a Ghana Economic Outlook and Business Strategy Conference, which was attended by 200 businessmen and government heads. A roundtable was also organised, which saw the participation of several authorities and 25 C-level heads, as well as a Dubai briefing session for Ghanaian businessmen and women.
Buamim said: “The launch of this office is an important development in the expansion of Dubai Chamber’s footprint in Africa and sends a signal of our commitment to enhance ties both in Ghana and in the West Africa region.”
“I would like to thank our Ghanaian government and business partners, and the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs, whose support and cooperation has enabled us to start a new era in Dubai and Ghana’s relationship,” he added.
The inauguration of the Accra office is a perpetuation of the Dubai Chamber’s strategy of exploring untapped markets in the world. In addition, the directives of His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, emphasise enhancing bilateral ties with Africa.
