Newmont Africa’s Ahafo South Mine has once again been crowned the top company in Ghana at the 21st Ghana Club 100 Awards, organized by the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) on Friday, October 25, at the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel in Accra.

This consecutive win underscores Newmont’s leadership in Ghana’s corporate and mining sectors.

The Ghana Club 100 Awards, established in 1998, celebrate excellence in Ghana’s private sector, honouring companies with exceptional corporate governance, financial stability, and economic contributions.

This year, Newmont Africa secured the Number One spot, outperforming industry giants like Goldfields Ghana Ltd and MTN Ghana, who took second and third places, respectively.

Held under the theme “Fostering Domestic Champions: Building Local Capacity,” the 2023 Ghana Club 100 Awards focused on celebrating businesses that not only excel in their fields but also contribute significantly to Ghana’s economic development and capacity building.

The awards are designed to inspire Ghanaian businesses to raise the bar in corporate governance and responsible business practices, aligning with the GIPC’s goal of creating a benchmark for excellence in Ghana’s private sector.

By highlighting the achievements of top companies, the awards scheme also encourages other firms to innovate, expand, and adopt best practices.

This year’s ceremony served as a platform for companies to network, explore collaborative opportunities, and expand their supply chains and market reach.

GIPC’s CEO, Yoofi Grant, praised Ghana’s economic recovery amid global challenges, noting that robust public-private partnerships will be key to sustaining growth.

The awards event, partnered with Asaase Broadcasting Company Ltd., provided a platform for networking and collaboration among leading companies.

It emphasized the awards’ broader goal of motivating businesses to achieve excellence in governance and responsible practices, thereby setting benchmarks for Ghana’s private sector.

For GIPC, the Ghana Club 100 Awards is an opportunity to showcase the success stories of Ghanaian businesses, incentivizing them to maintain high standards while motivating others to aim for inclusion in the prestigious list.
