The GNBCC in February 2026: Events, Engagements & Key Updates

February was a short but exciting month packed with engaging events for our members!

Event Highlights

The event featured snacks made exclusively with local ingredients, Tale Beer brewed right here in Ghana, and an exhibition by alumni of our Private Sector Development (PSD) programs showcasing made-in-Ghana products.

Pension Planning Webinar: Our member, People’s Pension Trust, in collaboration with the National Pensions Regulatory Authority, shared insights on iCare. This feature of the PPT Personal Pension Scheme is designed to make pension planning more inclusive, flexible, and accessible for everyone! The video recording is available on our YouTube channel.

Access to Finance in Horticulture: GNBCC took an active role in a strategic meeting focused on access to finance in the horticulture sector, joining representatives from government, financial institutions, input dealers, Farmer-Based Organizations (FBOs), and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The outcomes of these workshops will be instrumental in shaping the Private Sector Development program, which will be deployed from July 2026 onward in collaboration with The Netherlands Embassy.
