In its New Year message via a statement signed by its Executive Secretary, Sampson Awingobit Asaki, it said “as we begin a new year with many resolutions in regards to seeing the maritime trade improving, the Importers and Exporters Association of Ghana wishes to assure its members, the business and general trading public that though this year 2020 is an election year, they should continue in hope and keep their businesses and trade portfolios active.”
It emphasized that Ghana has seen many peaceful and largely incident-free elections, and the 2020 Election will be no exception.
However, “we would like to take this opportunity to admonish Customs, GCNET, WestBlue and/or UNIPASS and all Trade Facilitation Partners to provide Importers and Exporters with robust systems to effectively and efficiently expedite their cargo clearance at the ports”, the Importers and Exporters Association said.
It therefore, reminded customs and their I.T solution providers hitherto GCNET and WestBlue that system downtimes and its resultant delays, impact negatively on importers and exporters, adding “for an election Year, we will have zero tolerance for such situations.”
It wished its members, stakeholders and the general trading community a safe, healthy and prosperous new year.
