The Association of Ghana Industries (AGI) has carried out a survey in the 12 districts of the Volta Region to identify potentials for industrial development.

Prince Kofi Kludjeson, President of AGI told the GNA on Wednesday that the survey showed that starch and glucose production could take place in the Hohoe District, while Kpando District has the potential for pineapple and tomato production.

He said the Sokode Biscuit Factory in the Ho District would be reactivated and the handicraft, pottery and ceramics industries would be developed to serve as sources of foreign exchange.

He called on Ghanaians, both at home and abroad to embrace the government's policy of golden age of business by investing in the economy to create wealth and alleviate poverty.
