Sea Freight from China to Ghana
Ghana is one of West Africa's most stable economies and a regional trading hub. Most imports arrive through Tema port (near Accra) and the smaller Takoradi port. SPEED INT'L provides complete FCL, LCL and project cargo services from China to Ghana, including door-to-door delivery through Accra, Kumasi and inland corridors.
