A native of Nzema in the Western part of Ghana is leading a historic industrial revolution in Ghana, one poised to redefine Africa’s position in the global energy transition. Behind this multibillion-dollar breakthrough is John Kaku Mason, the Co-Founder and CEO of Kambic Industrial Partners, and the driving force behind what will become the world’s largest Bamboo Bio-Refinery Complex: Amaaba Bio Refinery.
Widely recognized as a visionary Ghanaian entrepreneur, Corporate strategist and Risk analyst, Kaku Mason is gaining international attention for spearheading one of Africa’s most ambitious renewable energy and industrialization projects.

The Amaaba Bio Refinery, Kambic’s flagship project, is set to become:
•The world’s biggest bamboo-to-biofuel refinery
•Africa’s first large-scale SAF and green chemicals complex
•One of the largest bamboo cultivation programs globally
This monumental project reflects Kaku Mason’s unwavering belief that Africa’s natural resources can power its own industrial transformation.
