Exhibition background
Ghana’s import tax on complete vehicles is 47%, while the import tax on used vehicles and accessories is only 5% to 10%, and the local VAT is 3%, which makes the import policy favorable and suitable for Chinese products to enter. Chinese heavy trucks, three-wheeled agricultural vehicles, and motorcycles are selling well in the Ghanaian market. Some companies already have assembly plants. For example, China’s SINOTRUK puts nearly 500 vehicles in Ghana every year, and various models of Wuzheng agricultural vehicles have been widely used in towns and villages in the past decade. (China-Africa Trade Research Center) It is said that three automobile assembly plants in Ghana will gain profit growth in 2019. According to the co-chairman of the Abossey Okai Automobile Spare Parts Dealers Association, these assembly plants will increase demand for their products. The Ghanaian brand Kantanka (Made in Ghana) is produced in central Ghana. The colors and models are very sufficient, and the models are also relatively wide, including SUV models and pickup truck models.
Innoson Automobile: Innocent Ifediaso Chukwuma is the founder and developer of Innoson Automobile Company in Nigeria. This company is the first company in Nigeria to specialize in building cars. They produce small cars and trucks. Now this model is on the market and put into use. At the same time, this car will definitely not be limited in production. They have no less than 500 cars on the market, and the sales price is between 1.5 million and 3.5 million naira. Turtle (Made in Ghana) Turtle is still a car made in Ghana and is also designed to meet local needs. This model combines the appearance of a jeep and a truck, and the overall feeling is very good. Nissan and Sentara will both establish Ghana assembly plants in 2019, so Ghana will launch a comprehensive automotive industry policy to provide clear and consistent guidelines for the automotive industry. The first phase of the project of global automotive giant Volkswagen to assemble cars locally in Ghana has been launched in Accra in April 2020, and a dealership has been established.

Reasons to participate
1. Ghana is an industrial powerhouse in West Africa, with political stability and rapid economic development
Industry is the main economic activity in the region and the livelihood of more than 60% of the population. With industrial technological progress and low tariffs, West Africa has promoted food self-sufficiency through industrial mechanization, through projects such as growing food, employment and exports. Ghana’s import tax on machinery and auto parts is only 0% or 5% to 10%, and the local VAT is 3%, making the import policy favorable and suitable for Chinese products to enter.
2. Professional customers and partners
Professional B2B matches exhibitors with industry professional visitors from Ghana and West Africa. The exhibition will provide exhibitors with key buyers and partners, providing them with opportunities to meet buyers.
3. Unique advantages
The exhibition industry is still an emerging market in Ghana, and there are few large-scale exhibitions held in Ghana. Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in February 2020, Yuanda International Exhibition Company has responded to the call for innovative service models. Since June 2020, it has held special sessions in Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Kenya and other countries, online overseas buyer matchmaking meetings for auto parts, hardware and building lighting, agricultural machinery and animal husbandry, epidemic prevention materials and other industries, helping domestic and foreign trade companies find overseas orders and accumulate a wealth of African buyers.
These overseas buyer matchmaking meetings have precise services, low costs and high efficiency, and have become an effective means to help foreign trade companies grow and develop new customers. We plan to continue to hold them. The increasingly accumulated suppliers and rich buyer resources are the guarantee for the success of the exhibition.
