Ghana stands at a historic crossroads, a moment where the rich soil beneath our feet and the resilience of our farmers must align with innovation, investment, and global opportunity.
The upcoming Ghana Horticulture Expo 2025, slated for June 11-13, 2025, at the Accra International Conference Center, is not just another trade show; it is a bold national statement. A statement that says: Ghana is ready to transform its horticultural sector into a powerful engine for economic growth, job creation, and export expansion, powered by a dynamic 24-hour economy.
The Expo will spotlight Ghana’s best in fruits and vegetables, while creating a powerful platform for producers, buyers, exporters, investors, and technology providers.
Horticulture already plays a vital role in Ghana’s non-traditional export basket.
The Expo opens doors for international buyers, secures trade deals and boosts foreign exchange earnings.
The event will showcase cutting-edge agritech (cold storage, organic processing, irrigation, and packaging), encouraging a shift from raw exports to high-value processed goods that retain wealth within Ghana.
By featuring produce from all 16 regions, the Expo decentralizes opportunities, linking rural farmers directly to global supply chains and improving livelihoods.
Modern horticulture is no longer limited by daylight. With digitization, logistics, and cold chains, Ghana can run seamless, round-the- clock agricultural businesses.
The Expo demonstrates how horticulture can anchor a continuous economic cycle of production, processing, and distribution. Behind every harvest is a human story. A mother working the land to feed her children.
A youth turning to agribusiness to forge a future. A diaspora investor returning to grow in Ghana.
The Expo is a tribute to these dreams. It tells the world that agriculture is not a fallback, it’s a future.
The author, Kwaku Boateng, is the Vice-President of Coconut Federation-Ghana.
