For decades the country has relied on imported cars, many of which were old or at the end of their lifespans.

A CKD designation, for example, means suppliers import all parts before assembling in Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>The government will also institute stringent measures to discourage importation of salvaged and overaged vehicles. Cars without destination certificates indicating their appropriateness will also come under scrutiny in the Ghanaian market.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/supercars.com.gh\/reliable-trucks-in-ghana\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How will the Automotive Development Policy Encourage Investment and Make Ghana an Automotive Hub?<br>\n<\/a><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Tax holidays and other import incentives will make Ghana an attractive destination for international OEMs;<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Alliances with educational institutions and local artisanal repair shops will offer OEMs access to skilled personnel, further incentivising their relocation to Ghana;<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">The integrated policy will attract suppliers and investment across the value chain;<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Financial and insurance firms will invest in asset-protection\/buying schemes for buyers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/supercars.com.gh\/reliable-trucks-in-ghana\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How Many Assembly Plants Do We Have in Ghana Now?<br>\n<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>There are seven assembly plants in Ghana so far.

This shows a high demand for private and commercial automobiles. Establishing assembly plants will reduce dependence on foreign suppliers and provide Ghanaians with affordable new cars.<\/p>\n<p>By curbing car imports, Ghana will save on foreign exchange. Once all assembly plants become operational, cars will be exported to neighbouring countries, further reducing the pressure on the Ghana Cedi.<\/p>\n<p>Assembly plants will provide thousands of jobs to engineers and produce a highly skilled workforce. Since these vehicles are for the domestic market, the quality assessment will ensure they meet local safety standards. Vehicles that meet local regulatory and environmental standards will promote safety on our roads.<\/p>\n<p>Check out Nissan\u2019s largest assembly plant in Ghana, here.<\/p>\n<style>\/*! elementor -
