Ghana’s leading beverage manufacturer, Kasapreko PLC, has announced plans to list about 25 percent equity shares on the main market of the Ghana Stock Exchange.
This move is part of the company’s efforts to drive growth and scale up investments across the continent.
The Chief Executive of Kasapreko, Richard Adjei, disclosed this to shareholders and the investor community during the Facts Behind the Figures series organized by the Ghana Stock Exchange.
Kasapreko has maintained an impressive growth trajectory since its listing on the Fixed Income Market, with 2024 revenue growing by 45% year-on-year to GHS 2.7 billion, driven by strong domestic sales and rising export demand.
Mr. Adjei revealed that the board has given approval for the listing of equity shares on the main market by the end of 2025.
“Coming onto the bond market was very historic for us as a local beverage company, and we are glad for the support received so far this year. Thanks to the board and the investors, we have received approval to list equities on the main market. Thanks to the Ghana Stock Exchange for pushing us to achieve this and also to our arrangers — we believe that we have to get more shareholders so we can take advantage of bigger markets,” he said.
Managing Director of the Ghana Stock Exchange, Abena Amoah, used the occasion to urge investors to support Kasapreko in its quest to expand and contribute more significantly to economic growth.
The Kasapreko growth momentum continued into Q1 2025, with revenue up 52% and profit after tax climbing 184%, driven by sustained volume growth and disciplined cost management.
