As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility, Groupe Ideal has presented assorted items to some Muslim communities here in Accra to break their fast (iftar). 

The items consisting bags of rice, cartons of tin tomatoes, cartons of milk, cartons of mackerel, cartons of milo and others are estimated to cost over GH¢20,000.

Presenting the items on behalf of Groupe Ideal, the Managing Director for Ideal Trade, Emmanuel Buah said “We are excited to share in your joy on this day. The donation is also to signify how important the period of Ramadan in Islam is to us. We believe you contribute in making our business a success and so this donation is to strengthen our bonds over the years.”

Receiving the items on behalf of the Muslim communities, the Muslim clerics lauded the initiative of Groupe Ideal and called on other corporate bodies to emulate it.

The Group Head, Corporate Communications and Strategy, Ekow Blankson added that “Groupe Ideal will continue to show its love and support to our Muslim brethren to let them know how important their contribution to our various businesses are to us.”
