Shea Employers Association calls for partial restriction on raw shea exports
- The Ghana Shea Employers Association welcomes the government's proposed restriction on raw shea nut exports.
- The association advocates for a partial restriction (20-30% export) instead of a complete ban on raw shea nuts.
- This partial restriction aims to ensure sufficient raw materials for local processors while allowing exporters to retain international market presence.
- A complete ban is cautioned against, as local processors might lack the capacity to absorb all raw shea nuts produced.
- The association emphasizes that continued large-scale raw exports threaten local processing businesses and the livelihoods of women dependent on the industry.
