Agriculture & Livestock
The Gonjaland is one of Ghana’s leading food baskets, known for cassava, yam, maize, rice, and legumes. With fertile soil and favorable climate, the region offers vast land for commercial farming. The livestock sector is equally promising, supporting cattle, goats, sheep, poultry, and pig farming – ideal for agribusiness investments.
Tree/Cash Crops & Shea Butter Processing
The region boasts the highest concentration of shea nut trees in Ghana. This presents a massive opportunity for processing shea into products for the cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical industries. Other cash crops include cotton, cashew, and sugarcane, creating a solid base for agro-processing industries.
Water Transportation
With direct access to the Volta Lake, inland port development presents a massive logistical opportunity. Water transport will facilitate the movement of goods and bulk commodities between the northern and southern parts of Ghana, reducing transport costs and enhancing trade.
Mineral & Hydrocarbon Resources
The Bole-Nangodi mineral belt runs through the Savannah Region, offering opportunities for gold and mineral exploration. GNPC has also identified the potential for hydrocarbon deposits, opening the door to future oil and gas investments.
Business & Trade
The Gonjaland Business Roundtable hosted in the U.S. reflects the region’s drive to connect global investors with local enterprise. Opportunities exist for tourism development, ICT hubs, green energy, and youth-driven innovation projects.
