The Logistics Industry in Ghana and West Africa by Daniel McKorley of McDan Group

Dr. Daniel McKorley, Executive Chairman of McDan Group, shares his assessment of the logistics industry in Ghana and West Africa.

“The general industry is an emerging industry. We are offering service in a total logistics industry. We go end to end. West Africa is an emerging economy in terms of logistics. Comparatively, we have just arrived and we are just coming up. The government has done very well and we have one of the best systems in the world in terms of freight forwarding. I have gone north, south, east, and west and the systems we have here in terms of clearing from the various ports you can get in only a few countries, even the US does not have it. Singapore and only one or two other places have what we have. Just the human element is what is creating that, but with the system we have, you can get your cargo out of the port within a few hours. The government has invested heavily in the GCNet (Ghana Community Network Services Limited) system and also the Ghana Revenue Authority has invested heavily into sanitizing the port and limiting the delays in the port”, says Daniel McKorley.
