Ghana’s producer price inflation eased slightly in November 2025, reinforcing cautious optimism among economists that inflationary pressures remain contained heading into 2026, even as risks persist beneath the surface. Data released by the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) show that year-on-year producer price inflation slowed to 1.3 percent in November, down marginally from 1.4 percent in October. While the decline was modest, it extended a broader trend of easing cost pressures faced by domestic producers, particularly in manufacturing and transport-related services.

For decades, Ghana’s tourism accommodation market was dominated by hotels, guesthouses, and hostels. That balance is now shifting.
