Senior Speaker and Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry; Before entering the government, Robert Ahomka-Lindsay had revealed that he had previously worked for the Coca-Cola Bottling Company and that he was therefore taking drinks prices very seriously.
He observed that there are opportunities in the beverage sector that residents should take advantage of given the volumes of fruit juice imported into the market. The addition of tiger nut juice for sale is therefore very promising.
