The delay in operationalization of the much-awaited Tree Crops Development Authority (TCDA) remains a worry for industry players like cashew processors.
According to cashew processors, further delay in making the Authority functional will among others bundle out the few surviving cashew processing companies in the country, especially the small-scale enterprises.
“Any further delay to make the TCDA functional will worsen the plight of local cashew processors because we’ll continue to lose our purchasing power on the raw cashew nuts market. Processors are unable to buy the needed quantities of raw nuts, thus under-utilising their installed production capacities. Besides, our obsolete equipment can no longer be relied on to meet the increasing demand,” George Nkrumah Sarpong, CEO of Gensap Food Processing Company in Sunyani, has said.

Good morning. I’m happy to join you today as we launch the U.S. interagency Global Food Security Strategy for Ghana and kick off its first activity, known as Feed the Future Ghana “Mobilizing Finance in Agriculture (MFA).” Supported by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the MFA is a $19 million, four-year activity that seeks to increase access to agricultural finance in select staples and commodity value chains such as maize, groundnut, shea, soy, mango, my personal favorite: cashew, and other high-value export commodities.
