The Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC), Simon Madjie, has called on investors to take advantage of Ghana’s pro-business environment.
He said government initiatives, including the 24-Hour Economy and Export Development Programme and the Big Push Agenda, are key drivers of growth and investment opportunities in the country.
Madjie made the remarks when GIPC hosted a delegation from Casablanca Finance City (CFC) during its 2025 West Africa Tour.
He emphasised that the policies are designed to support companies exploring business opportunities in Ghana.
The 24-Hour Economy and Export Development Programme encourages firms, particularly in priority sectors, to operate round the clock through multiple shifts, with the aim of increasing productivity, creating jobs and enhancing Ghana’s competitiveness in the West African region.

Madjie also highlighted the growing economic cooperation between Ghana and Morocco and assured the delegation of GIPC’s full support as they assess business opportunities.
The delegation, led by Aziz El Khyari, Director of Business Development and African Cooperation at CFC, commended Ghana’s improving infrastructure and vibrant tourism sector.
The Centre’s Head of Investment Promotion and Business Development, Kwame Kesse, identified high-potential sectors such as fintech, tourism, water and construction, noting strong opportunities for both local and foreign investors.
