Management of the explained that this decision reflects the company’s mission to empower the people of Ada and Ghana while bolstering the local economy.
This salt harvest is not just an economic activity; it’s an opportunity to provide jobs, improve livelihoods, and support the people who have been custodians of this resource,” the Management said.
“Ada has always been at the heart of salt production in Ghana. By adopting a manual approach for this harvest season, we’re not only preserving traditional practices but also ensuring that economic benefits stay within the community. We’re dedicated to creating shared value and leaving a positive impact,” he continued. While the company has the capacity for mechanical harvesting, it chooses manual labour to honour the community’s longstanding traditions and promote local economic independence.
