Ghana enterprise agency to implement SMEs growth programme under world bank fund

 Ghana Enterprise Agency under the ministry of trade and industry is implementing the small and medium- size enterprise (SME) growth programme under the world bank funded Ghana economic transformation project.

The programme is government’s effort to promote private enterprises as a tool for successful job creation.

The SME high growth is a challenged fund under the GETP aimed at providing productive and competitive support to small and medium sized businesses.

The Western Region Trade Officer, Isaac Yankson, said the SME High Growth Programme would focus on the high-growth of small and medium-size enterprises in selected sectors of the economy.

The Programme would focus strongly on youth and female-owned enterprises, enterprises owned by Persons Living with Disabilities as well as businesses that are into exporting.

He further encouraged SMEs to take advantage of and apply for the grant to shore up productivity and advance economic growth.
