Woolworths opens new store in Ghana

The West Hills Mall store stocks a comprehensive range of men's, women's and children's clothing as well as beauty, footwear and accessories.

"We are delighted to be able to meet our customers' growing expectations and needs by opening a new store in a great location and we are optimistic about our future in Ghana," said Paula Disberry, Woolworths Group Director, Retail Operations. "Ghana remains a compelling growth opportunity for Woolworths. The economy has shown successive year-on-year economic growth, coupled with rising household incomes, increasing urbanisation and a significant emerging middle class."
