To commemorate this year’s Eid Al Fitr celebration, Management of the Ghana Export – Import Bank (GEXIM) has announced it will be hosting the “Eid Mart Tuesday Market” on Tuesday 9th April and Wednesday 10th April 2024.

“Eid Mart Tuesday Market” is a special edition of the Bank’s popular Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) Fair dubbed Tuesday Market, scheduled to take place at the forecourt of the Africa Trade House (next to the British Council in Accra) from 8AM to 8PM.

Some of the very unique, and authentic products to be exhibited include food and ingredients, beverages, skin and beauty care products, textiles, apparel, garments, leather footwear to slippers and many others.

The Deputy Chief Executive Officer of GEXIM, responsible for Banking, Ms. Rosemary Beryl Archer indicated that Eid al-Fitr is a special celebration by Muslims worldwide to mark the end of the month-long dawn-to-sunset fasting of Ramadan, and as such, it must be celebrated with the very best and finest of Ghanaian products.

“This is the fifteenth edition of Tuesday Market which coincides with the special celebration of Eid al-Fitr. Over the years, Tuesday Market has become that platform to help to stimulate the demand for local products while ensuring the quality and durability of Made-in-Ghana goods and services. We will be unveiling our next line of star products at this special edition and also have specially selected products and services for the Muslim community on display”, she emphasised.

Over the years, the Bank has been championing the repositioning of the Ghanaian economy into an export-led one and has introduced several initiatives to encourage Ghanaians to consume locally manufactured products and services, which will ultimately lead to economic development.

“Eid Mart Tuesday Market” is scheduled for Tuesday 9th April and Wednesday 10th April 2024 at the forecourt of the Africa Trade House (next to British Council) from 8AM to 8PM and promises to showcase the finest and most affordable Made-In-Ghana products.
