Reroy Group Limited, a leading player in Ghana’s power sector, says it is well-positioned to support the government’s proposed 24-hour economy policy, with plans to scale up production to meet the infrastructure demands of a continuously operating economy.
Kate Quartey-Papafio, Founder of Reroy Group Limited, said the company is prepared to align its operations with the government’s vision of a continuous working cycle across key sectors of the economy. She noted that Reroy’s production capacity and technical expertise position it as a strategic partner for the energy infrastructure projects expected to underpin the 24-hour economy initiative.
“We have the infrastructure, the team, and the strategy to operate effectively within a 24-hour economy,” she said. “Reroy is ready to scale production to support the increased demand for reliable power and connectivity that this initiative will bring.”
The 24-hour economy policy, proposed by Ghana’s government as part of its industrial transformation agenda, aims to reduce unemployment and increase productivity by encouraging businesses to operate in shifts around the clock. The policy’s success hinges on the readiness of the energy and manufacturing sectors to sustain higher operational demands, particularly in areas such as power supply, logistics, and infrastructure.
Reroy Group Ltd, a fully Ghanaian-owned company established in 1992, has grown from a cable distributor into a leading manufacturer and supplier of energy solutions across Africa. Operating from Tema’s Heavy Industrial Area, the company has over 30 years of experience in supporting power generation, transmission, and distribution.
Reroy’s operations span cable and conductor manufacturing, power distribution equipment, aluminum and alloy wire rod production, renewable energy development, and infrastructure projects. Its diverse portfolio includes low-, medium-, and high-voltage cables, transformers, substations, and overhead lines, with applications in industrial and rural electrification.
Through its subsidiaries—Reroy Cables, Reroy Power, Reroy Metals, Reroy Energy, and Reroy Infrastructure Solutions—the Group is delivering innovative, locally made solutions that power critical infrastructure. As the government prepares for increased activity under the 24-hour economy initiative, Reroy is well positioned to meet the rising demand for reliable energy systems.
With an ISO 9001:2008 certification and a Ghana Standards Authority (GSA) Critical Examination Certificate, Reroy’s production systems meet international standards such as IEC, BS, and ANSI/ICEA. This compliance is crucial for integration into large-scale public infrastructure projects that may emerge as the country adapts to extended work cycles.
Reroy’s manufacturing facility—expanded in 2007—is regarded as the largest cable plant in Ghana. It enables high-volume production for national utilities, infrastructure developers, and regional exports. The company currently serves markets in Nigeria, Togo, Benin, Mali, and Equatorial Guinea, making it a key player in West and Central Africa’s energy ecosystem.
“Beyond Ghana, we have built a reputation for supplying quality cables across the region,” Ms. Quartey-Papafio said. “This experience positions us well to contribute not only locally but to the broader West African integration of energy infrastructure.”
Industry observers say Reroy’s range of specialized products, including marine-grade and telecommunications cables, could also support other sectors such as coastal energy projects and digital connectivity—two areas poised for expansion under a 24-hour economy.
The company produces flexible cables for machinery, armored solutions for industrial protection, and building wires compliant with UL, IEC, and BS standards. These products are expected to see increased demand as commercial and industrial facilities adopt continuous operations.
Reroy also places emphasis on product innovation and customer satisfaction as part of its broader strategy within the Reroy Group portfolio. While Quartey-Papafio did not provide specific details on upcoming investment plans or factory upgrades, she hinted at future initiatives aimed at deepening Reroy’s role in national development.
“As a proudly Ghanaian company, we view this as a chance to contribute meaningfully to economic growth. We are actively exploring opportunities to expand our footprint and support the policy with local content,” she said.
The push for a 24-hour economy comes as Ghana seeks to reduce youth unemployment and diversify its industrial base. The policy is expected to require strong partnerships between the public and private sectors, particularly in manufacturing, power distribution, and infrastructure development.
For Reroy, which began as a small importer more than three decades ago, this policy could mark a new chapter in its growth story. With robust regional networks, international certifications, and large-scale production capability, the company sees itself as a natural fit for Ghana’s next phase of economic transformation.
“We’re not just ready—we’re eager to contribute,” said Ms. Quartey-Papafio. “This policy is not just about working longer hours. It’s about creating sustainable systems, and that includes reliable energy infrastructure. That’s where we come in.”
