Czech healthcare and pharma industries in Ghana

A number of African countries, including Ghana, have shown a long-term interest in the products of the Czech healthcare and pharmaceutical industry. This sector of ours, in the entire spectrum of its products, can respond to the demand of partners from the mentioned countries, which representatives of Czech companies were able to see for themselves during the Czech-Ghana business seminar in the field of healthcare and pharmacy, which took on May 2, 2023 in Accra.
 

As part of the tailor-made program of PROPED, i.e. a project to support economic diplomacy, representatives of the Czech companies LINET, MZ Liberec, Comedeq, Royax Group, MB Pharma, Draslovka and the Association of Manufacturers and Suppliers of Medical Devices presented a portfolio of products during the mentioned Czech-Ghana business seminar of their companies and the possibility of mutual bilateral cooperation in the future. The seminar was held in cooperation with the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Ghana, the Agency of Ghana Industries, the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre, the Healthcare Federation of Ghana and the Ghana Chamber of Commerce and Industries. The agencies were represented by their sector representatives and at the same time they were helpful in finding numerous interested partners at the level of companies and other associations for B2B negotiations, which were part of the seminar program. The rich participation on the Ghanaian side demonstrated the great interest of the African partner in establishing mutual business relations.

The aim of the mission was to follow up on the successful initial negotiations that took place at the ministerial level during the Prague Health Forum in May 2021, the highly appreciated activities of the Ministry of the Interior of the Czech Republic in the field of health care within the MEDEVAC program and the activities of the Government of the Czech Republic during the period of the COVID pandemic and related monetary donations in the form of providing medical supplies to selected Ghanaian hospitals.

The main items in demand are modern equipment, equipment and technology for individual departments of both state and private healthcare facilities - interest is both in the import of individual products, as well as in investment and construction of manufacturing companies for these items directly in Ghana. Raw materials and technologies for the pharmaceutical industry are also in demand. Czech producers definitely have a lot to offer in all these fields, and business engagement in Ghana provides them with a good opportunity to gain a foothold not only here, but subsequently also in neighboring African countries.
