Gapuma, On the Ground and Ahead of the Curve:

Yanish Bhageerutty Reflects on Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana

20 March 2025

Gapuma Business Development Manager, Yanish Bhageerutty has just concluded a successful visit to Côte d’Ivoire and is currently wrapping up his trip in Ghana, which will conclude tomorrow. With the region facing shifting political and economic dynamics, Gapuma’s local presence and infrastructure have proven invaluable in navigating these markets with agility and confidence.

During his time in Abidjan, Yanish engaged with key partners, gaining first-hand insights into the evolving commercial landscape. Côte d’Ivoire, with its stable GDP growth and expanding industrial sector, offers promising opportunities despite broader regional uncertainties. With Gapuma’s own warehousing facilities strategically located in Abidjan, the company is well-positioned to meet growing demand efficiently and reliably.

In Ghana, where Yanish is concluding his trip, Gapuma’s methanol storage facilities in Tema play a pivotal role in servicing clients with flexibility and speed. With Ghana’s petrochemical and industrial sectors showing resilience amid global headwinds, the ability to store and distribute methanol locally enables Gapuma to adapt swiftly to market fluctuations and customer needs.

Yanish noted the value of being on the ground, stating, “Spending time with our partners in Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana reinforces the importance of local expertise and presence. It allows us to not only strengthen existing relationships but also identify new opportunities that align with our growth strategy.”

With a well-established foothold in West Africa, Gapuma continues to expand its reach, providing consistent, responsive service across the region. Whether you are a supplier or a purchaser, we are always delighted to hear from you. For more information, please contact Yanish at yanish@gapuma.com.
