B5 Plus: Revolutionizing Ghana's Steel Industry and Championing Local Manufacturing in West Africa
- Written by Sandra Francisco
- Published: June 28, 2023
Mukesh Thakwani, Founder and CEO of B5 Plus, shares the company’s vision of building a self-reliant steel industry in Ghana and talks expansion across West Africa.
"B5 Plus aims to achieve backward integration by producing steel in Ghana and manufacturing all our products locally. We want to eliminate the need for importing materials. For instance, B5 Plus established PEB engineering to produce pre-engineered building products, and within four years, we started exporting to the entire West African market. We have supplied pre-engineered buildings to Senegal, Togo, Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, and other countries. Therefore, B5 Plus has the potential to manufacture products not just for Ghana but for the entire West African market. I would also like to use this opportunity to urge the government to impose an immediate ban on importing materials that we can produce here in Ghana. This would save millions of dollars in foreign currency, preserve jobs and create new employment opportunities", says Mukesh Thakwani.
