52. Herbal medicine
Ghanaians are now realizing the fact that not only orthodox medicine is effective in combating various ailments.

Food is one of the basic needs of man and anyone that ventures into food production is sure of a never ending demand. The steady growth of Ghana’s population due to influx of investors, students, tourist, etc will only help explode the demand for food.
Ghana has soils that can support a vast variety of food crops. And yet, the agricultural sector is one of the most underutilized in the country. The Ghanaian government hasn’t done enough to explore the sector, which comprises only a few private companies. One can liken the agricultural industry in Ghana to a gold mine, as there’s always a high demand for agricultural produce.
Following the discovery of oil in Ghana, the country is set to join the list of petroleum exporting countries.

Though starting an oil and gas business could be very expensive, you can venture into it if you have what it takes.

56. Food production
Because Ghana is home to many agricultural food products, it offers the much-needed raw materials for food processing companies.

57. Transport services
Aside food, transport from one place to another is another necessity. And the reality in Ghana agrees with this. So, if you are planning to start a business in Ghana, but you are yet to find a promising opportunity, the transport sector is an option. You can start a business that renders transport services, either on a small scale with few vehicles that ply short routes or on a large scale with many large vehicles that ply long routes.
Though an expensive sector to break into, the real estate business in Ghana is, as is the case in most countries, very lucrative. Following the discovery of oil in the Western part of Ghana, the nucleus of development and industrialization is gradually shifting towards the region. So, you will probably make more money as a real estate investor if you focus on the oil-rich region.
There are many business opportunities in Ghana, and more people are getting to realize this with each passing day. This has led many business-minded Ghanaians (and foreigners, too) into various small businesses.
However, many small businesses are yet to launch and many existing ones are yet to expand — both due to lack of funds. Therefore, there is high demand for microfinance services. If you have a background in banking, especially microfinance banking, you’ll make money and at the same time help develop many small businesses.
60. Tourism
This is another big industry in Ghana. Every year, the country plays host to many foreigners who come to behold the various tourist attractions in the country. The tourism industry in Ghana is another sector you can start a business in if you want huge gains in the long term. One glad fact about this business opportunity is that even foreigners can launch it easily.
