Ghana Link appealed to importers, exporters, freight forwarders, shipping lines, and all partners in the trade ecosystem to continue to bear with them during the upgrade period.
“Your confidence in ICUMS has been the bedrock of its success, and with these upgrades, we are confident that the system will deliver a solid, stable and fast user experience with reliability, efficiency, and transparency,” the statement added.
