Prudential Bank Limited distributed chocolates to customers across its branches nationwide in February as part of activities marking National Chocolate Month.

The Ghana Tourism Authority and the Cocoa Processing Company designate February as National Chocolate Month to encourage the consumption of locally produced chocolate and promote Ghana’s cocoa industry.

The initiative seeks to increase domestic consumption of cocoa products and support local manufacturers. Customers who visited Prudential Bank branches during the month received chocolates.

Acting Managing Director of the Bank, Ebow Quayson, said the initiative aligns with efforts to promote local industry and recognise customers. He noted that cocoa remains an important part of Ghana’s economy and that increased local consumption can contribute to value addition and employment.

Jamila Disu, Total Quality Management Manager at the Bank’s Customer Experience Unit, said the gesture formed part of the Bank’s customer engagement activities.

Bank officials said the initiative was implemented across branches nationwide during the month.
