Top Accra Unique Experiences

Let’s explore the local and second-hand clothing industry and examine its impact on locally manufactured garments in Makola and Agbogbloshie. We will discuss the winners and losers in this market, and you'll also have the opportunity to shop for locally made clothes and other items as we go along. The global second-hand clothing (SHC) trade has a long history. Currently, African countries are the primary importers of the lowest-quality second-hand clothing, a trend that significantly affects local clothing makers and traditional prints. Kantamanto, located in Accra's central business district, Ghana, is the largest second-hand clothing market in West Africa. Approximately 15 million items, including used clothing, bags, shoes, belts, and hats, are brought into the Kantamanto market weekly. This influx includes unwanted donated clothing, commonly called "Obroni w'awu," which means "the white man is dead" in the local dialect.
