The Volta Region is taking bold steps to align with President John Dramani Mahama’s 24-Hour Economy Policy, positioning itself as Ghana’s next hub for productivity, jobs, and sustainable investment.
At the Volta Economic Forum 2025, Regional Minister Hon. James Gunu announced that the Volta Regional Coordinating Council (VRCC) has identified over 50 bankable projects across key sectors such as agro-processing, aquaculture, renewable energy, ICT, logistics, and eco-tourism.
To attract investors, the VRCC has set up a One-Stop Investor Facilitation Desk and district-level teams to guide investors “from concept to commissioning.”
Dubbed the “Corridor of Productivity,” the initiative aims to transform Volta into a 24-hour industrial and commercial powerhouse.
“Our people are ready, our resources are abundant, and our leadership is united,” Minister Gunu declared, calling for partnerships that are mutually beneficial and socially responsible.
The forum, held in collaboration with the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) and the 24-Hour Economy Secretariat, focused on turning policy commitments into measurable results — with mechanisms in place to track progress.
“This is our defining moment,” Gunu said. “Let’s make the Volta Corridor the new frontier of Ghana’s industrialisation.”
The event signaled a new era for the Volta Region — one where productivity never sleeps and opportunity meets readiness.
