Ghana’s inflation rate has dropped for the eleventh consecutive month, easing to 6.3% in November 2025 from 8.0% in October, according to the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report released by the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS).
The Government Statistician, Dr. Alhassan Iddrisu, who presented the data in Accra, said the decline was driven largely by reductions in both food and non-food inflation. Overall, prices went up by 0.9% between October and November 2025.
Food inflation fell sharply to 6.6%, down from 9.5% in October. Non-food inflation also dropped to 6.1% from 6.9%, while inflation in the services sector eased to 3.8% from 4.6%.
Regionally, the North East Region recorded the highest inflation rate at 12.3%, whereas the Savannah Region posted the lowest at -0.02%.
Inflation for locally produced items decreased from 8.0% in October to 6.8% in November 2025. Inflation for goods also slowed, declining to 7.3% from 9.3%.
Businesses have been encouraged to take advantage of the lower inflation environment by investing in efficiency, strengthening local supply chains, reducing waste, and passing cost savings on to consumers where possible.
