Ghana’s leading retail home furniture, deco and office company, Orca Deco has opened one of the largest office showrooms in Ghana to serve varied customers across the country.

Marketing Manager for Orca Deco, Emma Louise de Ricquebourg explained that “Opening a showroom this big and this beautiful exclusively dedicated to office, shows how much Ghana as a country and Accra as a city, have grown in the past 15 years.”

The Marketing Manager stated that with the size of the showroom and range of furniture, the company will be able to cater for all segments of their target audience in the country.

Mrs. de Ricquebourg said this at a ceremony to officially open the showroom on the Spintex Road in Accra on Thursday.

She explained that Orca Deco offers full business solution in office furniture items ranging from home offices and work stations to executive offices, boardrooms and even waiting area furniture items. Additionally, “Whether you are creating a home office, or you are a young entrepreneur looking for a small office to get your business started, or even a multinational company operating in this vibrant city of Accra, we can always meet your needs,” she noted.

Touching on the impact of the exchange rate, Mrs. de Ricquebourg explained that despite a fluctuating exchanging rate, Orca Deco has stable prices across all retail shops in the country.

“We are aware of the fluctuation of the exchange rate in recent times, however, we have positioned ourselves well and have maintained competitive price over a long period of time to meet the needs of our customers,” she stressed.

According to her, although Orca was founded as a shop that sold household goods, the company was determined to expand based on the demands of their customers.

“Early in our story, we noticed a strong demand for office furniture and made it our mission to provide our customers with quality yet affordable office furniture as we all see today,” Mrs. de Ricquebourg explained.

She added that with the different collections in office solutions, the company can guarantee that one will always find something to suit their taste and budget when shopping at Orca Office Furniture.
