Ghana’s Construction Industry Set for 5.9% Growth in 2025
Ghana’s construction sector is poised for significant growth, with projections indicating a 5.9% real-term increase in 2025. This surge is attributed to substantial public-private investments in transport, mining, and energy infrastructure, coupled with a rise in export activities.
The government’s focus on infrastructure development aims to address urbanisation challenges and stimulate economic growth. Key projects include road expansions, energy facilities, and public buildings, which are expected to create employment opportunities and enhance the nation’s financial landscape.
However, the industry faces challenges such as regulatory compliance, funding constraints, and the need for skilled labour. Addressing these issues is crucial to sustain growth and ensure the successful execution of planned projects.
Stakeholders are encouraged to collaborate, invest in workforce development, and adopt innovative construction technologies to maximise the sector’s potential. With strategic planning and effective implementation, Ghana’s construction industry can significantly contribute to the country’s socio-economic development.
