Wenchi TOMACAN, a household name in the Bono Region and beyond, was noted for the processing and packaging of vegetables, particularly tomatoes, garden-eggs and okra, as well as all kinds of fruits.
The then buoyant factory became the life-blood of the local economy of Wenchi and its environs in the 1960s, 1970s and early 1980s.
The company itself was called GIHOC Cannery Limited, with the Wenchi Tomacan as its brand name because of its main focus on the canning of tomatoes.
At its peak, the factory directly employed more than 1,000 people while a lot more benefitted indirectly from its operation through the out-grower scheme.
