The programme was launched during the fourth edition of the National FMCG Summit and Awards, organised by Global Ovations in Accra. It brought together leading voices, brands, and changemakers from across Ghana’s fast-moving consumer goods industry.
CEO of Global Ovations, Gideon Raji, at the launch of the initiative said, “This year’s summit isn’t just about awards, it is about building a stronger future for the FMCG industry in Ghana. Through this mentorship programme, we’re laying the foundation for the next generation of industry leaders.”
The 2025 FMCG incubation programme was launched by Eric Kumah, Marketing Manager, West Africa at Danone, Edwin Amoako, Managing Director and Business Consultant, Ewuraba Adusei, Marketing Director, GB Foods Ghana, Barbara Incoom, Marketing Director at Delta Paper/Alpha Industries, and Gideon Raji.
Eric Kumah called on the experienced professionals present to volunteer to mentor the next generation, saying, “You have rich experiences today. Now is the time to give back some of what you have been given to shape the industry tomorrow.”
