On August 20 – 21, CLDP, alongside U.S. Embassy Accra as well as international and regional trade and investment partners, hosted a workshop on franchise investment opportunities for local entrepreneurs and prospective investors. The workshop trained participants on how to develop and negotiate a franchise investment in the service sector, including retail, child services, education, cosmetics, health, and information technology (IT). The workshop helped participants realize the unique opportunities that franchise investments can bring to Ghana’s small and medium enterprises as well as companies with limited capital.
