A Message from the CEO

Sammy Gyamfi Esq., Chief Executive Officer, GoldBod

Welcome to GoldBod.

At GoldBod, we are committed to transforming Ghana's gold trading industry to optimize national benefits, through responsible sourcing, value-chain traceability, value addition and sustainability in line with international best practices.

Backed by a seed capital of $279 million USD (cedi equivalent) advanced to us by the government of Ghana, we oversee, regulate and undertake the purchase, assay, refining and export of a minimum of 3 tons of gold every week to off-takers across the globe for the main purpose of generating foreign exchange for the country and enhancing gold reserve accumulation by the Bank of Ghana.

Together with our stakeholders, we are building a world-class trading organisation for precious minerals that fosters sustainable growth and transformation in line with the vision of H.E. John Dramani Mahama, President of the Republic of Ghana.
