The firm paid taxes and duties totalling GHS150m (US$35.5m) over the past year.

We are looking at continuing this feat in future by expanding our operations to meet the needs of our customers in the country and creating more jobs,” said Media Relations Manager, Etornam Komla Buami.
Dangote is currently expanding the silos at its Tema import terminal and constructing a new grinding plant at Takoradi, at a cost of US$100m.
