What makes Ohema Ohene a truly great brand is that it doesn’t just focus on fashion but has a long term goal of eventually becoming a gateway to prosperity for the Ghanaian community. In addition, the brand plans on changing the perception of Africa by creating beautiful and colorful pieces reflecting the royalty and wonder rarely shown in Africa. Ultimately the brand wants to build a long term source of trade for the Ghanaian people and its neighboring countries. True to this goal, Ohema Ohene has been producing its collections in Ghana since 2013 carrying the “Made in Ghana” label. Currently, Ohema Ohene trains and employs Ghanaians to produce great quality products which are modern yet culturally oriented.
