Sachet water producers want government’s support
Some producers of sachet water are pressing for
government’s support in their efforts to produce
quality and affordable sachet-water. They say
research into water and drilling of bore holes
constitutes a chunk of their production cost.

Chief Executive of Cob “A” Industries - producers
of Standard Water, Divine Otoo-Agorhum tells Joy
Business support from government will help reduce
their production cost which would inure to the
benefit of consumers.

“This is something you expect government to
support. It’s quite an expensive venture. From
doing the geo-physics survey to test drilling you
end up spending close to 40,000 Ghana cedi just
for one hole. We are asking research institutions
and government to come in and support” he noted.

He was speaking to Joy Business at the company’s
15th anniversary launch.
