Trade and Industry minister Alan Kyerematen has revealed\u00a0192 business plans have been approved for take-off in\u00a0the government’s\u00a0industrialization policy to establish one factory in every district.<\/p>\n

The approved business plans represent 41% of 462 proposals submitted to the government after it reached out publicly to private investors.<\/p>\n

A satisfied Trade and Industry Minister said private sector interest in the\u00a0industrialization plan has been “very significant”, stating the “1D,1F, is very much on track”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He said the commercially viable plans will cover 102 out of the 216 districts in the country.<\/p>\n

The government has shown a preference to sit back and allow private businesses to lead in wealth and job creation while it provides support.<\/p>\n

But he said the government would not shy away from taking the lead in establishing projects in districts where no private player has submitted a commercially viable plan.<\/p>\n

In that case, the government will invest and incubate a project and then hand it over to a private investor.<\/p>\n

But essentially, the one district, one factory initiative is not designed to be state enterprises, Alan Kyerematen who was also Trade Minister under the former NPP government said.<\/p>\n

About 15 years ago, he was in charge of the John Agyekum\u00a0Kufour-led NPP government’s Presidential Special Initiatives, a plan to shift focus from Ghana’s cash cow, cocoa.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
