Government says it will bear 50% of interest on loans advanced to factories that would be operating under its 1District, 1Factory (1D1F) policy.

This intervention by government is expected to attract more companies in the private sector to get onboard the government’s 1D1F programme.

Speaking at the Graphic Business and Stanbic Bank Breakfast meeting in Accra, Senior Minister Yaw Osafo Marfo added that the move would help take some burden off owners and managers of factories under the programme.

Mr. Osafo Marfo stated that out of the 781 proposals submitted so far under the 1D1F programme, 50 have been appraised, with 15 approved for implementation by close of 2018.

The Senior Minister also disclosed that cabinet has approved GHȻ236 million to be disbursed as stimulus package for struggling companies.

The 1District, 1Factory policy is one of government’s flagship programmes aimed at helping industrialised Ghana’s economy, and also serve as an avenue for job creation to reduce unemployment in the country.

Under the project, each of the 216 Districts in the country is expected to have at least 1 factory based on the predominant trade or natural resources within the District.
