The 2025 Ghana Garden and Flower Show, organised by Strategic Communications Africa Limited (Stratcomm Africa), received high-level national recognition on Wednesday, September 24, when Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, Vice President, visited the Show.
She went round the various stands and interacted warmly with exhibitors, entrepreneurs, and young innovators showcasing Made-in-Ghana products and green solutions at the 13th edition of the Show.
She commended the creativity and commitment of participants, emphasising that the exhibition demonstrates the power of Ghanaian innovation in advancing sustainability, creating jobs, and strengthening national pride.
She remarked: “It is deeply impressive to see the wealth of talent and innovation among our youth, and the many Made-in-Ghana products on display here.
“The plants, the greenery, and various floriculture products are not just inspiring; they are essential to our national vision for sustainable growth.”
The Vice President further highlighted how the Show contributes to Ghana’s broader development goals, including promoting entrepreneurship, driving sustainable urban development, and creating opportunities within the green economy.
Her remarks reinforced the central theme of this year’s Show, “Urban Places, Green Spaces,” which champions the integration of greenery into urban living to enhance health, climate resilience, and national competitiveness.
