Mr Lorry Li-Wei, Managing Director of KEDA Ghana Ceramics Limited, says the company contributed GH¢738 million in taxes for the 2025 fiscal year.
He said the amount was expected to increase significantly to about GH¢1 billion annually once the company’s Float Glass Manufacturing factory becomes fully operational.
Mr Li-Wei said the company’s investment in Ghana had always been deliberate, strategic, and focused on long-term growth.
He explained that the company aimed to build an industrial hub capable of meeting domestic demand while also serving regional and international markets.
Mr Li-Wei reaffirmed the company’s 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 said.
Mr Li-Wei noted that as part of this vision, the company had invested more than 300 million dollars in establishing six production lines and one sanitary ware production line.
He said the company’s operations currently occupied more than 400 acres of land, with an additional 400 acres secured as reserve land to support future expansion and investment.
“The impact of the investment is both measurable and meaningful,” he added.
Mr Li-Wei said the company’s operations were fully aligned with the government’s proposed 24-hour economy policy as production ran in three shifts to ensure continuous operations and maximise industrial productivity.
He said KEDA was China’s leading manufacturer of ceramic tiles and sanitary ware, accounting for about 40 percent of its domestic market share.
The company has a daily production capacity of 200,000 square metres of tiles and 4,200 pieces of sanitary ware.
Mr Li-Wei said about 60 percent of the company’s products were marketed under the brands Twyford, Micasso and Frencia and exported to more than 20 countries across Africa, the Americas and Europe.
He explained that these exports generated valuable foreign exchange earnings while also positioning Ghana prominently on the global industrial stage.
Mr Li-Wei added that beyond exports, the company remained a responsible corporate citizen through consistent tax contributions that supported national development.
He said currently 99 percent of KEDA’s raw materials were sourced locally, helping to strengthen the local supply chain, promote sustainability, and retain economic value within Ghana.
