A historic day was marked today, October 21, 2025, at the Movenpick Ambassador Hotel in Accra, with the official launch ceremony for the Gomoa Central Special Economic Zone (GCSEZ) Declaration. The ambitious initiative, spearheaded by Kwame Asare Obeng, the Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central and CEO of the GCSEZ, signals a major turning point aimed at fostering industrial transformation and attracting significant investment to the Gomoa Central area.
Under the theme “Driving Industrial Transformation,” the declaration sets a high-reaching economic agenda for the region. Kwame Asare Obeng, often known as A Plus, expressed profound gratitude on behalf of the people of Gomoa Central and the team behind the zone, thanking all attendees for supporting what he envisions as Africa’s biggest Free Zones Industrial Park.
The event saw high-profile dignitaries present, including the Right Honourable Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, Sir Sam Jonah (Executive Chairman, Jonah Capital), Obrempong Nyanful Krampah (Paramount Chief of Gomoa Ajumako Traditional Area), and the Central Regional Minister, Ekow Panyin Okyere Eduamoah. Support was also noted from Ministers, diplomats, media leaders, and business figures, signifying broad backing for the project.
The organizers extended special thanks to event hosts Bernard Avle and Serwaa Amihere for their professional handling of the ceremony. Asare Obeng stated that the collective presence renewed the belief that Ghana’s industrial transformation is achievable through vision, unity, and courage, pushing toward a 24-Hour Economy driven by innovation.
He concluded by announcing the next major milestone: the sod-cutting ceremony to officially commence construction of the industrial park is scheduled for December 21, 2025, in Gomoa Central, which he positioned as the “heartbeat of Ghana’s industrial and economic future.”
