One platform, five industries, one growth story

Built from a single freight-forwarding business in 1999, McDan Group has grown into a diversified Ghanaian conglomerate spanning Shipping & Logistics, Aviation, Salt & Minerals, Construction and an AfCFTA Trading arm that facilitates, aggregates and deals in FMCGs. Each subsidiary carries its own growth curve — together, they give partners and investors exposure to some of West Africa's fastest-moving sectors under one Ghanaian-owned platform.

Why partner with McDan Group

A diversified platform built for the long run

Four reasons the Group's growth story stands on its own, independent of any single market or sector.

Diversified by design

Five sectors — logistics, aviation, minerals, construction and continental FMCG trade — spread risk across cycles rather than concentrating it in one market.

First-mover infrastructure

The only Freight Forwarding company in Ghana licensed for chartered cargo flights, and holder of the GSA for Global Aviation in West Africa.

Institutional-grade validation

Ghana's Minerals Income Investment Fund (MIIF) has taken an equity stake in ElectroChem Ghana, the Group's salt and minerals subsidiary.

Built for continental trade

Positioned to benefit as the African Continental Free Trade Area opens a market of 1.3 billion people and $3.4 trillion in combined GDP.

The portfolio

Where the growth comes from

Every subsidiary is at a different stage of its own growth curve — together they make up the full potential of the Group.

Salt & Minerals ElectroChem Ghana Limited

A 41,000-acre concession at Songor, Ada, scaling toward one to two million metric tons of salt a year, with a planned refinery and chlor-alkali plant in the pipeline.

Expansion frontier
Continental trade AfCFTA Trading Company

Facilitates, aggregates and deals in fast-moving consumer goods (FMCGs), positioned to capture new continental trade flows opened up by the African Continental Free Trade Area.

FMCG aggregation & distribution
Macro tailwinds

The market is moving in the Group's direction

Three structural shifts underpin the growth case for every subsidiary in the portfolio.

$3.4T

A continental market opening up

The African Continental Free Trade Area connects 1.3 billion people and a combined GDP of $3.4 trillion — and it's headquartered in Ghana.

A stabilising home market

Ghana's macroeconomy has been stabilising, with easing interest rates creating a more favourable climate for business investment.

SDG 9

Industrial policy tailwind

National policy is actively encouraging inclusive, technology-driven industrialisation in sectors like salt, chemicals and logistics.

Leadership

Led by a founder who still runs it like one
