Last-Mile Logistics & Road-Freight Brokerage Platform Capitalising on Ghana's Big Push 32-Road-Project Corridor Expansion
Why now
Ghana's Ministry of Finance issued commitment authorisations for 32 road infrastructure projects on July 24, 2025 under the Big Push Programme, directly expanding commercial corridors into previously underserved communities. The government has committed GH¢13.9 billion ($1.1 billion) to priority infrastructure in 2025, rising to $1.6 billion by 2028, creating a multi-year pipeline of newly accessible markets that digitally-enabled freight brokers and last-mile logistics operators can monetise from day one of road completion.

Full analysis
Ghana is experiencing a decisive macroeconomic rebound in 2025-2026. Real GDP expanded 6% in 2025 (up from 5.8% in 2024), driven by services (ICT +13.1%, finance +9.3%) and a recovering agricultural sector. FDI surged to $2.61 billion in 2025 — more than four times the $652 million recorded in 2024 — across 253 projects spanning petroleum, manufacturing, free zones, and technology, with over $5 billion in additional commitments announced. President Mahama's 'Big Push' infrastructure programme committed $1.1 billion for 2025 alone, with 32 road projects approved as recently as July 24, 2025. The Bank of Ghana's National Payment Systems Strategy 2025–2029 is formalising open banking and fintech infrastructure, while the Feed Ghana Programme is mobilising capital into agro-processing value chains. Ghana's EU Economic Partnership Agreement and AfCFTA hub status provide European investors with preferential market-access advantages unavailable to most competitors.
