Fidelity Bank called for greater investment in processing, storage, packaging, logistics and certification within Ghana's agricultural value chain to increase export earnings and retain more wealth domestically, citing the contrast between cocoa paste earnings (US$789 million in 2025) and nontraditional agricultural exports (US$710 million in 2025) as evidence of the need for value addition beyond production.
Fidelity Bank has called for Ghana to shift its agricultural financing and structure to capture more value from what it already produces, rather than simply producing more. The bank argues that agricultural sovereignty lies in controlling more of the value created by Ghanaian agriculture and retaining more income within the economy, highlighting that cocoa paste generated approximately US$789 million in 2025 while non-traditional agricultural exports generated approximately US$710 million over the same period.
Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, Ghana's Trade, Agribusiness and Industry Minister, has urged Ghanaian exporters to prioritise compliance with global standards and quality requirements, saying increased production alone cannot guarantee success in international markets. She noted that food safety, traceability, certification, packaging, and quality standards are essential for competing under market access arrangements like the African Continental Free Trade Area.
The government is working to develop Ghana's horticulture sector as a driver of export growth, with efforts to improve production, processing, certification and market access. The Trade Minister said non-traditional exports exceeded US$5 billion in 2025 and highlighted an approved agribusiness policy aimed at addressing supply, financing, value addition and market access challenges.
The Federation of Associations of Ghanaian Exporters president has called for increased investment in horticulture, highlighting Ghana's position as the world's leading yam exporter and its potential to generate substantial export revenue from mangoes, particularly given the country's ability to harvest in two seasons.

The Vice President of the Coconut Federation of Ghana says coconut is a zero-waste crop with applications across food, automotive, and other industries, and calls for greater investment in the sector to drive value addition and job creation ahead of the Ghana International Horticulture Expo 2026.
The third Ghana Horticulture Expo 2026 has been launched in Accra with a theme of "From Soil to Sovereignty: Building Ghana's Agricultural Self-Reliance."

Ghana has natural advantages—fertile soils and year-round production capacity—to become a leading African horticultural hub as global demand for tropical fruits and vegetables rises, yet currently exports only a fraction of potential market volumes despite producing internationally recognised crops like pineapples, mangoes and avocados.
Global trade in tropical fruits reached nearly 11 million tonnes in 2023, driven by rising demand for pineapples, mangoes, avocados and papayas. Ghana possesses natural advantages to become a leading horticultural hub but currently exports only a fraction of what the global market can absorb, constrained by irrigation, post-harvest losses, and cold-chain infrastructure challenges.

Ghana produces approximately 380,000 tonnes of tomatoes annually but needs over 800,000; between 30 and 45 percent of the domestic harvest spoils before reaching consumers due to inadequate cold chain and processing infrastructure. A local brand, Ntoswura, is partnering with farms to process tomatoes into paste at source to address the waste and reduce import dependence.
