Under the dynamic leadership of Derrick Cobbinah, GhanJacc’s President, this burgeoning partnership is geared towards addressing cross-border challenges and tapping into the potential of bilateral trade. 

Exploring bilateral solutions

GhanJacc’s primary mission is to create pathways for Jamaican businesses to offer innovative solutions to challenges faced by Ghanaian counterparts and vice versa. 

This collaborative approach aims to foster economic growth and open up new horizons for both regions.

Upcoming trade missions

To kickstart this endeavor, GhanJacc is planning two significant trade missions: one from Ghana to Jamaica and another from Jamaica to Ghana. 

These missions are set to strengthen economic ties, promote cultural exchanges, and encourage mutual investment opportunities.

Monthly networking events

GhanJacc intends to facilitate regular networking events to raise awareness and boost membership. 

These gatherings will bring together like-minded individuals and companies, fostering connections and partnerships that can drive sustainable growth.

Market entry services

A cornerstone of GhanJacc’s strategy is to provide comprehensive market entry services. This initiative will assist companies seeking to establish a presence in Ghana or Jamaica, simplifying the often intricate process.
