Madam Esther Cobbah, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Strategic Communications Africa Limited, has urged Ghanaians to explore the local and international economic potentials in the floricultural industry.
She said this would help create more businesses and make the country much greener, cleaner, wealthier, healthier, and beautiful.
Speaking at this year’s virtual “Ghana Garden and Flower Conference” she said citizens should build interest and explore opportunities in the nation’s growing flower economy to increase the export of flowers to other parts of the world.
The Conference was on the theme: “Growing and Managing a Green Enterprise”.
She said the Flower Show started with 14 exhibitors in 2013 and patronage had grown over the years to 140 exhibitors and over 21,000 visitors in 2019.
The CEO said this year’s edition had taken a virtual approach and exhibitors had displayed their products via its online platform.
She said this would help sell Ghana to the world and thrive in business despite the outbreak of COVID-19.
