Ghana: Cement manufacturers have failed to comply with a Cement Manufacturing Development Committee (CMDC) directive to declare ex-factory prices for 50kg cement bags by 23 May 2025, in line with the Ghana Standards Authority Legislative Instrument 2491, which mandates the reporting of prices every month.
CMDC chair Alex Dodoo confirmed on 27 May 2025 that no firm had complied and said the committee would hold an emergency meeting to consider sanctions. “The law is clear, and we will not hesitate to apply the necessary penalties,” he said.
