Komenda Sugar Development Company Limited [1] (also known as Komenda Sugar Factory) is a Ghanaian factory established in 1964 and its operations ground to a halt in the early 1990s. This was due to poor management and technical issues. [2]

In 2016, Government secured a $35 million developmental aid from the Indian government, followed by an additional $24 million investment to revamp the operations of the sugar factory. [3]

Revival

The sugar factory collapsed and it was inaugurated by the erstwhile John Mahama government in 2016. [4] [5] [6] This was made possible by a developmental grant facility of 35 million dollars from the Indian government. [7]
