Most especially now that taxes on imports have been slashed,\u201d Senior Marketing Specialist, Africa Region of UAZ Motors, Natalia Buryak said.<\/p>\n
Government early this year scrapped the 1% import levy.<\/p>\n
The tax cuts that numbered about eight plus other four reviewed taxes, are expected to reduce the cost of doing business in Ghana and make local businesses more competitive.<\/p>\n
Natalia Buryak also gave assurances that her outfit is considering keenly to establish an automobile hub in Ghana within the next five to six years.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo in future, we will build an assembling plant here, probably in the next five or six years.\u201d<\/p>\n
She explained however that the company will in the mean time import the spare parts to satisfy the clientele base in Ghana.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor now we would like to establish a dealers’ center of vehicles to make a center of after sales service to make a stock of spare parts and other things.\u201d<\/p>\n
In an interview with Citi Business News<\/strong>, Madam Natalia Buryak said the move will also solve the unemployment issues facing the country.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen the hub is established, we will employ numerous Ghanaians and this will also solve to an extent the unemployment issues some Ghanaians face,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n –<\/p>\n By: Jessica Ayorkor Aryee\/citibusinessnews.com\/Ghana.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Automobile dealers have hinted of establishing an automobile hub within the next five years in Ghana due to the reduction in taxes on imports.
