Abraham Koomson wants Ghana to focus manufacturing companies within the 24-Hour Economy plan. The Ghana Federation of Labour leader spoke to reporters Thursday about making factories the main priority. Koomson believes proper support would boost the flagship project and speed up economic changes. Government workers need to create better conditions for businesses to succeed across all regions.
Manufacturing jobs would help the local money become stronger and increase exports to other countries. Koomson explained how factory work reduces the need for buying foreign products. Local companies face serious problems from smuggled goods and fake textile designs flooding markets. Cheap copies hurt real producers who cannot compete against illegal imports.
Officials must protect local industries just like other nations defend their businesses from unfair competition. Koomson stressed that textile factories suffer the most damage from counterfeit products entering Ghana. Government agencies should work together to stop smuggling and support legitimate manufacturers. Creating manufacturing jobs would reduce unemployment and help the economy grow faster.
