The traders at Aburi Craft Village in the Eastern Region of Ghana are lamenting low sales of late.
One of them, Kwame Appiah Adu in an interview with Onua News’ Akua Sarpomaa stated that “customers cannot purchase as they used to due to the economic situation.”
“Most of our customers are foreigners and nowadays, they only come for window shopping and also photo taking and not patronize our goods,” he said.
Another trader, Kwasi Danquah added that, “these foreign customers take the pictures of their designs to their various countries and design them because they have the logistics for design”.
“We are appealing to the government to support us in terms of machines so we can produce more since it also serves as tourist attraction,” he added.
