Mr Lorry Li-Wei, the Managing Director of KEDA Ghana Ceramics Limited (Ltd), says the company contributed GHC738 million in taxes for the 2025 fiscal year.
He said with the full operation of the Float Glass Manufacturing factory, this figure was projected to increase significantly to approximately GHC1 billion annually.
Speaking to the Ghana News Agency (GNA), he stated that the company’s investment in Ghana had always been deliberate, strategic, and long-term.
Mr Li-Wei noted that they envisioned building an industrial hub capable of meeting not only domestic demand but also serving regional and international markets.
He reaffirmed the company’s unwavering commitment to contributing meaningfully to Ghana’s socio-economic transformation.
“We look forward to growing together with Ghana and contributing even more to the nation’s manufacturing future,” he stated.
Mr Li-Wei noted that in pursuit of this vision, the company had invested more than $300 million in the establishment of six production lines and one sanitary ware production line.
He said: “The company’s operations currently occupy over 400 acres, with an additional 400 acres secured as reserve land to support future expansion and investment, and this impact of the investment is both measurable and meaningful.”
The MD added that their operations were fully aligned with the government’s 24-hour Economy policy as they operated in three shifts, ensuring uninterrupted production and maximising industrial productivity.
“KEDA stands as China’s leading manufacturer of ceramic tiles and sanitary ware, accounting for approximately 40 per cent of their domestic market share, with a daily production capacity of 200,000 square meters of tiles and 4,200 pieces of sanitary ware.
“About 60 per cent of our products are marketed under the brands Twyford, Micasso and Frencia and exported to more than 20 countries across Africa, the Americas and Europe,” Mr Li-Wei noted.
He said these exports not only generated valuable foreign exchange earnings but also positioned Ghana prominently on the global industrial stage.
He said beyond exports, they remained a responsible corporate citizen through consistent tax contributions that supported national development.
He stated that currently, 99 per cent of KEDA’s raw materials were sourced locally, strengthening the local supply chain, promoting sustainability, and retaining economic value within Ghana.
