Inedible made-in-Ghana goods sold at Shoprite in Osu, Accra

From The Vim Views & Versions - Blogs of a MIghTy African Sat Jun 7 2014, 23:44:00

While doing some inventory checking for Shoprite items, I imagined that I'd be recording many less Made-in-Ghana goods that were not edible. We're an agri-based economy and though we produce a relatively small number of value added foods, we produce even less products that don't contribute to our daily diets. Read the following tweets capturing the non-edible things :-)

#MadeinGhanagoodsshopritesells: Butsoft toilet tissue. Otherwise known as toilet roll. Saved face. Made in #Accra somewhere.
