Ghana Advances US$270 Million Poultry Investment Programme

Ghana’s 24-Hour Economy and Accelerated Export Development Programme signed an agreement with Agrium Capital on 22 October to advance a US$270 million poultry-sector investment programme. The development is intended to mobilise capital for integrated poultry production, create employment and reduce exposure to the country’s reported US$400 million annual import bill for chicken and poultry products; financial advisers and investors can explore project structuring, investment assessment and risk analysis, while HPC can support financial modelling and decision-support systems, noting that the US$270 million represents the announced programme value rather than a disclosed HPC fee.
