GTDC engages Website Developers to create Ghana Tourism Marketplace Digital Platform
The Ghana Tourism Development Company (GTDC) recently held a meeting with a team of software and website developers from Creative Bibini Ltd to discuss the development of the Ghana Tourism Marketplace Platform (GTM). This innovative digital platform is designed to streamline the tourism experience by bringing together various tourism service providers including accommodation, rentals, flights, shops, and tour operators onto a single, user-friendly interface.
The Ghana Tourism Marketplace Platform will allow tourists to conveniently access and purchase essential services at any given time. Additionally, the platform will serve as a hub for tourism-related news, travel articles, upcoming events, and recommended activities for visitors to engage in upon arrival in Ghana. It will also provide insights into local cuisine and vibrant nightlife options.
To enhance trip planning, the platform will feature information on peak and off-peak seasons for popular tourist attractions, as well as optimal flight booking periods to ensure an enjoyable and cost-effective stay in Ghana. Users will also benefit from exclusive discounts on services offered through the platform.

One of the key objectives of the Ghana Tourism Marketplace is to ensure that tourists receive high-quality services while prioritizing safety and security. As a nationally accredited platform, all vendors will undergo rigorous screening before being on boarded, guaranteeing a trusted and reliable marketplace. To further encourage industry participation, GTDC will allocate a portion of profits from the Shared Ownership Fund (SOF) at the end of each year as an incentive for registered tourism associations.
The website has currently undergone the first phase of development and yet to be fully completed before mid of March, 2025. Management and staff of GTDC offered their suggestions in quest to fine tune the product. Under the leadership of Prof. Kobby Mensah, GTDC is committed to leveraging digital innovation to make tourism in Ghana more seamless, accessible, and attractive to both tourists and investors.
