Zambia Misison in Accra

Mr. Hakainde Hichilema, President of the Republic of Zambia on 8th July 2023, toured Accra Compost and Recycling Plant (ACARP). The visit afforded the Head of State an opportunity to have first- hand knowledge of how ACARP, a subsidiary of the Jospong Group of Companies was managing Ghana’s waste, and how the mechanism could be replicated in Zambia.

The President commended the Jospong Group for creating jobs and employing youths who were particularly Ghanaians. The President assured the company that Zambia was ready to work with the group to transform the sanitation challenges in Zambia. President Hichilema also expressed delight in the company’s ability to treat waste to produce organic fertilizer to support agriculture.
