Business News of Monday, 31 May 2021Source: www.ghanaweb.comFormer Ambassador to China, Edward Boateng, has charged Ghana to capitalize on the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) agreement to sell its cocoa. According to the former ambassador, the country has more room to come up with products from cocoa. Mr. Boateng raised concerns on the need for Ghana to give attention to processing and exporting its cocoa and gaining market ground on the continent. The former ambassador’s assertions are because the AfCFTA is a trade agreement between 52 African states that seeks to remove trade barriers amongst the participating countries. The agreement creates the largest free trade area in the world measured by the number of countries participating.
