The Office of the Registrar of Companies (ORC), led by the Registrar of Companies, Mrs. Maame Samma Peprah, joined key public and private sector stakeholders at the official launch of the Kwahu Business Advisory Association (KBAA), an initiative aimed at strengthening organized business support in the Kwahu area.
Held under the theme “A Collective Voice for Enterprise: Kwahu Advocacy in Policy and Trade,” the ceremony marked a major step toward building a unified platform for business advocacy and development. The event brought together traditional leaders, business executives, entrepreneurs, and representatives of relevant institutions, who underscored the need for collaboration to unlock the area’s economic potential.
A highlight of the ceremony was the presentation of the association’s official registration certificate by the Registrar of Companies. The certificate formally recognizes the KBAA as a legal entity authorized to operate within Ghana’s regulatory framework. The presentation emphasized the importance of formalization in enhancing credibility, accountability, and access to opportunities for organized business groups.
Speaking at the event, Mrs. Peprah explained that the registration demonstrates the Office’s commitment to supporting business associations and promoting regulatory compliance as a foundation for national economic development. They noted that properly registered associations are better positioned to advocate for their members, attract strategic partnerships, and contribute meaningfully to enterprise growth.
The Kwahu Business Advisory Association is a non-partisan, non-profit, policy-oriented body established to unite business owners, executives, and enterprise leaders across the Kwahu enclave into a structured platform for coordinated advocacy. The association aims to provide a credible forum for dialogue with government, traditional authorities, financial institutions, and international partners while promoting an enabling environment for private sector growth, particularly for small and medium-scale enterprises.
The ceremony concluded with the official unveiling of the association’s logo and the introduction of its Managing Board, signaling the start of a new chapter in organized business advocacy in the area.
