Ghanaian out-going trade and industry minister, Haruna Iddrisu, has decided to reconstitute a Task Force on the Seizure of Pirated Ghanaian Textile Designs to combat recent negative effects faced by the textile industry due to trade in pirated textile designs.
Apart from this, another reason is the decline of Ghana’s textile workforce. The number of workers in the country’s garment industry has dropped from 30,000 in the 1980s and early 1990s to 3,000 presently.
