The Caucus of the Municipal and District Chief Executives in the Volta Region has endorsed the upcoming 7th Volta Trade and Investment Fair in Ho, scheduled between 27 November and 7 December 2025, in Ho.

The Association of Ghana Industries and the Volta Regional Coordinating Council are rigorously preparing to deliver a 24-hour Fair trading experience.

The Fair themed "Volta Rising: Building Global Partnerships for thriving 24 Hour Economy" would also host the National Farmers Day celebration on December 5, 2025.

The Dean of the Volta MDCEs, Jerry Ameko, who is also the Adaklu District Chief Executive, endorsed the Fair during a courtesy call to the Volta Fair Secretariat in Ho.

He said that all the 18 assemblies would be oriented to “tap into the opportunities” that will be provided by the upcoming Fair.

He assured the full participation of all the assemblies and emphasized the Fair's economic and physical development impacts on the region.

“We are deeply going to get ourselves involved in the Fair, we are going to own it and we are going to participate fully to ensure that districts will benefit fully from this Fair because everything that we need to develop this region can be derived from this fair”, he said.

The Volta, Eastern, and Oti Regional Chairman of the Association of Ghana Industries, Dela Gadzanku acknowledged the efforts of the MDCEs to ensure a successful fair.

“We appreciate all your efforts of the MDCEs towards the 7th Volta Trade and Investment Fair, the first 24-hour fair in Africa", he said.

He expressed optimism for a deeper collaboration between the organizing entities and the 18 assemblies towards the fair which would stimulate the local economy, and project the Volta Region.

“We look forward to deepening the collaboration, under the able leadership of James Gunu, the [Volta] Regional Minister, and with the Dean present, he will marshal his colleagues, and he will encourage them to participate fully", he added.

Mr. Gadzanku urged the assemblies to identify the Fair as a springboard for development, and highlight their various potentials to attract investors among others, to harness development in their respective areas.

“And we hope that there will be prosperity in all the 18 municipalities and districts, and our youth and women will get jobs, and we will make the Volta [Region] we want through the 24-hour Economy Policy”, he said.
