The following GAIN reports were released on June 26, 2025.
In 2024, Ghana's imports of U.S.-origin food and agricultural products grew to $147 million, up 27 percent compared to $107 million registered in 2023. Consumer-oriented food products imports are the country's the fastest growing food sector/category. Ghana's 2024 imports of U.S. consumer-oriented foods hit $121 million, up 30 percent from 2023. Ghana's economy is recovering from the 2022 financial crisis, when it defaulted on its debt. Consumer preferences and spending on food products is improving in tandem. Ghana still relies on official multilateral credit inflows as debt-restructuring continues; it still remains locked out of international financial markets. While Ghana may increase its output of agricultural staples over time, imports in the medium-term will likely not be displaced soon due to lingering fiscal and administrative constraints.
