Zeepay Ghana has been adjudged the best company in Ghana at the 19th edition of the Ghana Club 100 Awards organised by the Ghana Investment Promotion Center (GIPC).

The fintech company topped a ranking of the best companies in Ghana, beating competition from Newmont Ghana Gold Limited and Multipro Limited, that came 2nd and 3rd respectively.

The  GIPC ranked Zeepay as number one in its annual compilation of the top 100 companies in Ghana to give due recognition to successful enterprise building.

The rankings were based on vigorous exercise that focused on size, profitability and growth of companies in the year under review.

Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre, Yofi Grant commended the private sector for its immense support in saving the Ghanaian economy in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine War.

"The private sector in Ghana has had to change significantly to accommodate the exigencies of the pandemic. Entrepreneurs and businesses were compelled to seek out and adopt new strategies to modify their business operations to remain productive and stable."

"From the way, work was conducted to where work was conducted, it is safe to say that virtual work and other innovations have become the new normal”, he said

On his part, Senior Advisor to President Akufo-Addo, Yaw Osafo Marfo said the country will recover from the global shocks if there are more investments into the Ghanaian economy by the private sector.

"As a catalyst to the Ghanaian economy, the private sector has done very well and with more investments more can be done to fight any external shocks”.

Other companies were awarded for contributing to the success of the club 100 awards.

Multimedia Group Limited was presented with a certificate for its immense contribution and providing an extensive coverage for the annual awards.
