Earlier today, September 11, 2025, Doris Afanyedey, CEO of the American Chamber of Commerce, Ghana (AmCham Ghana), visited Pierre Lambert Hill Managing Director of Mantrac Ghana in Accra as part of the CEO Listening Tour and engaged with the company’s leadership team.

Mantrac Ghana, the authorized Caterpillar dealer in the country, has operated in Ghana for over 88 years, supplying heavy machinery and equipment for the construction, mining, and energy sectors. The company employs a predominantly Ghanaian workforce, with over 97% of its staff being local, and continues to make significant investments in skills development and technical training, having trained more than 2,000 technicians in recent years.

One of Mantrac’s flagship contributions is its $60 million Component Rebuild Centre (CRC) in Takoradi, the largest of its kind in West Africa, which enhances the company’s ability to support mining and infrastructure projects across the region. Despite challenges such as evolving regulatory requirements, import restrictions on equipment, and increasing competition from low-cost suppliers, Mantrac remains committed to operating transparently, building local capacity, and sustaining Ghana’s industrial growth.

Through its investments, Mantrac Ghana continues to position itself as a trusted partner in driving innovation, supporting infrastructure development, and advancing Ghana’s broader extractives and construction industries.
