Ghana Link gets deal to manage cargo at Gambia’s sea ports
Ghana Link Network Services Limited is expected to manage the flow of cargo at Gambia’s seaport following the company’s successful implementation of the Integrated Customs Management System (ICUMS) at Ghana’s two major trading ports – Tema and Takoradi ports.
This was announced by the company’s Chairman, Nick Danso Adjei during a ceremony to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Ghana Link and its South Korean partners, Customs Uni-Pass International Agency (CUPIA) on Tuesday, 6 December 2022.
The MoU is to enable the two companies work together and share resources and knowledge for the advancement of the ICUMS in Ghana.
It is also to enable the deployment of the ICUMS to neighbouring countries and the rest of Africa.
Speaking at the ceremony, Chairman of Ghana Link, Nick Danso Adjei said the trading community (importers, exporters) and other relevant stakeholders have been satisfied with the performance of the ICUMS since its deployment in June 2020.
“All the stakeholders are very satisfied with the performance of the ICUMS system and this system has had a great impact on our trade and revenue generation.
“I am extremely excited that CUPIA has agreed to partner with Ghana Link for the development of similar systems for our neighbouring African countries. Together, we shall help transform the international trade landscape of our sub-region and continent as a whole,” he said.
For his part, Kim Yoon Shik, Chairman of CUPIA agreed with Mr Adjei that the ICUMS has been largely successful.
“Through the close cooperation between the two organisations, we hope to contribute to the development of Ghana and Africa, by supporting the modernization of their customs administration,” he added.
