Mher in Ghana-2025

Exploring Ghana’s Dynamic Textile Market with MH
Ghana has emerged as a mature and vibrant market vibrant with opportunities in the textile and accessories industry. During our most recent business trip, the MH team deepened its understanding of the local market dynamics, assessed the progress of our operations, and identified new areas for growth.
With MH already holding a commanding 70%-80% share in the accessories market, and end consumers recognizing and specifically requesting MH products, our strong brand reputation creates a foundation for further expansion. But the question remains—how can we strengthen our foothold and continue to thrive in this evolving landscape?
This blog shares insights gained from our visits, including engaging with businesses, identifying challenges, and mapping out growth strategies.
MH’s Stronghold in Ghana’s Accessories Market
Over the years, MH has built a solid reputation in Ghana’s accessories market. Our dedication to providing high-quality products—ranging from threads and zippers to lace and ribbons—has earned us a leading 70%-80% market share. It was particularly encouraging during this trip to see customers specifically requesting MH products while shopping, a clear endorsement of our quality and reliability.
This brand affinity becomes a springboard for our future growth plans, especially as we set our sights on the fabric sector—a challenging but promising segment.
Key Takeaways from 30+ Business Visits
During the trip, the MH team conducted intensive market activities, engaging with 30-40 existing clients and 7-8 potential new partners. The interactions provided valuable insights into both opportunities and challenges in Ghana’s textile market.
Expanding Client Relationships
Some clients placed orders immediately, reaffirming their trust in MH products. For others still in the negotiation phase, our in-person discussions provided the foundation to build stronger relationships and align priorities. Such face-to-face engagement remains a critical part of our market strategy, especially in fostering partnerships that drive long-term success.
Growth Opportunities in Fabric
While MH dominates the accessories market, the fabric market remains an untapped potential. A closer assessment during this trip revealed gaps in product offerings and demand for innovative solutions. To close these gaps, we are mapping out strategies to expand our fabric lineup with better-fitting options for local needs.
Refining Processes for Local Impact
To enhance operational efficiency, our team further refined Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for our liaison points. Additionally, we conducted training sessions to upskill our local employees, equipping them with the necessary tools to deliver exceptional service.
While the SOPs were already well-structured, these refinements optimize existing processes, ensure seamless operations, and empower our team to better serve the local market.
Strengthening the MH Brand Moat
At MH, we continuously strive to enhance our brand value and deepen our competitive moat. Investing in innovation, training, and strategic collaborations ensures that we stay ahead of the curve in Ghana’s evolving market.
By empowering our business partners to achieve commercial success through MH products, we grow together while strengthening loyalty to our brand. Stay vigilant for new opportunities and experiment with fresh collaboration models allow us to remain agile in an increasingly competitive landscape.
Final Thoughts
Ghana’s textile and accessories market is evolving, driven by a solid balance of tradition and innovation. While MH continues to hold a dominant position in the accessories sector, opportunities in the fabric market and the rise of entrepreneurial startups highlight new paths for growth.
To maintain our leadership, our focus will remain on refining processes, empowering local teams, and meeting the demands of a changing market. Whether it’s through high-quality products or innovative collaborations, MH is determined to stay at the forefront of Ghana’s thriving market.
