Hiran Perera, Emirates' senior vice president of cargo planning and freighters, said: "Ghana is booming - exporting items such as oil and gas equipment, pineapples, mangoes, a variety of vegetables, fresh fish and lobsters - so strengthening our commitment to West Africa with the introduction of this weekly freighter makes great business sense."
