The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Ghana Shippers\u2019 Authority (GSA), Ms Benonita Bismarck said the seminar was held in partnership with the 23rd<\/sup>Ghana International Trade Fair with the objective of making Ghana\u2019s international trade more competitive.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, the Authority is standing in partnership with the 23rd<\/sup>Ghana International Trade Fair by holding this seminar to educate our shippers on the key roles of these bodies and effective ways and methods to reduce some of the bottlenecks associated with the clearing of cargo with the objective of facilitating trade and making Ghana\u2019s international trade more competitive.\u201d, she said<\/p>\n

This was contained in a speech read on her behalf by the Deputy CEO, Ms Sylvia Asana Dauda-Owu.<\/p>\n

Ms Bismarck said it was imperative that shippers know the regulations as well as the processes of shipping their products in order to meet international standards and make them very competitive.<\/p>\n

The Government of Ghana has initiated ten pillars of industrial transformation agenda aimed at transforming the country\u2019s economy from over reliance on the importation of goods and on international aid.<\/p>\n

This, she said \u201ccan only be achieved if emphasis is placed on hard work to improve on international trade volumes, more efficient port operations and better infrastructure across the logistics chain.\u201d<\/p>\n

The seminar was organised by the Ghana Shippers\u2019 Authority under the theme \u201cEnsuring the Competitiveness of Ghana\u2019s International Trade: The Role of Regulatory Agencies and Shippers.\u201d<\/p>\n
