The CEO of the Chamber of Bulk Oil Distributors Senyo Hosi has called on Ghanaian politicians to wear made-in-Ghana shoes. He says made-in-Ghana products are not substandard and ought to be celebrated by all Ghanaians.
Mr Hosi made these comments at the launch of Havilah footwear – a local shoe manufacturing company.
“The president, the ex-presidents and all the politicians masquerading as people really passionate about Ghana, don’t masquerade with your words, masquerade with your actions,” he said. “Let us see you wear made-in-Ghana from A-to-Z”
Senyo Hosi commended the founder of Havilah footwear, Emmanuel Kwame Boateng and the Havilah team for their bold initiative and encouraged them on their entrepreneurial journey.
“Havilah is trying to remind us of who we are. We are Ghana – we are Ghanaians, we are the Black Star, the hope of Africa. We can’t just be takers. We need to be makers of our continent and that is what Havilah stands for and that is why I’m happy to be associated with you.”
Havila produces a wide range of men and women’s footwear right here in Ghana.
