Mr Kyeremanteng said that the visit by the delegation will strengthen the relationship between Slovenia and Ghana and also provide further prospects for more effective engagements in the industry. He said that Ghana's location in Africa, that is, its proximity to European, Middle East and Asian countries makes it an ideal and preferred investment destination.

He added that one of the key pillars for Ghana's economic takeoff has been identified as gathering both local and foreign investors. "Global trade and investment dynamics require that countries seek new frontiers, partnerships and linkages to remain relevant and competitive in the global market" he noted.

He said that it is imperative that  Ghana and Slovenia capitalize on the opportunities presented by the summit to forge more mutually beneficial trade and investment relationships that possess the realities of its peculiar needs and are in line with pressing global commitments.

Mr Kyeremanteng urged the Slovenian delegation to take advantage of the Free Trade Agreements entered into by Ghana such as the Economic Partnership Agreement with the European Union, The African Growth and Opportunity Act with the United States of America among others and use Ghana as a production point to serve the Economic Community Of West African States (ECOWAS) region. He also urged Ghanaian business to network with their Slovenian Counterparts to take Ghana Beyond Aid.

Deputy Foreign Minister of Slovenia, Dobran Bozic said that bilateral activities in recent years between Ghana and Slovenia have sped up.

Speaking to the media, Mr Bozic said Slovenia is a green nation and there is a lot of opportunity for Ghana as a leading nation on the continent for green energy. He expressed confidence in Ghana's business climate.

The CEO for Ghana Export Promotion Authority (GEPA), Madam Afua Asabea Asare  said that it is sad that Intra-African trade is just about 2 per cent. She added that though Ghana is considering Intra-African Trade, external trade is also very necessary especially with other European countries.

Madam Asare said that the delegation has come after a good projection of Ghana to Slovenia during the Africa Day in May 2018. She said that Slovenia is also looking to expand trade beyond their borders adding that this offers Ghana an opportunity due to its central location.

She also said that some members of the delegation have expressed interested in cocoa and cocoa derivatives adding that Ghana can in turn tap into their sanitation planning and recycling plants which she described as remarkable.
