The Ghana Free Zones Scheme is an integrated programme to promote processing and manufacturing of goods through the establishment of Export Processing Zones (EPZs) and encourage the development of commercial and service activities at seaport and airport areas.

In essence, the whole of Ghana is accessible to potential investors, who have the opportunity to use the free zones as focal points to produce goods and services for foreign markets.

Completely private sector driven, Government's role in the programme is limited to facilitate, regulate and monitor activities of zone developers/operators and enterprises.
