At a press conference held at Atomic- kwabenya in Accra where the IBD project is currently under construction, investors, job seekers, residence of the area, prospective business partners and security agencies were present to have an insight of the project.
According to the Chief Executive Director of Anaina International Co. Ltd, Mr Clemence Gyato, the necessary documents covering the 164 acres of land from the appropriate authorities has been acquired. He showed copies to the public including the consent of the property owners, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the law court, Ghana National fire service and the Ga East Municipal Assemble to testify that it is safe to do business with the company. He elaborates that the project will be divided into three phases; the first phase of the project will be completed in October this year, whiles the rest will be completed over a period of three years. Already, 78 manufacturers are waiting to bring their products on board; hence he urges interested would be partners to come on board now to avoid competition with others.
Mr. Gyato does not only deem the building of the state of the art ultra-modern facility as a life time investment opportunity but also as his company’s quota in helping government in its effort to curb the unemployment situation in Ghana.
He added that his company is encouraging entrepreneurship by providing consultancy for customers, especially unemployed graduates to venture into profitable businesses.
