Kenneth’s father, Kennedy Agyapong has been a major player in Ghana’s cold store industry for years. In 2022, he announced plans to build the largest cold store on the continent, with a capacity of 31,000 tonnes.

The facility, which is nearly complete, is expected to surpass the current largest in Angola, which holds 30,000 tonnes.

The Assin Central lawmaker and businessman divulged that the project sits on over two acres of land, slightly bigger than the football pitch at the Ohene Djan Sports Stadium.

He emphasised that his goal was to contribute to job creation and economic growth in Ghana.

Beyond cold storage, Kennedy Agyapong has also invested heavily in other industries, including steel manufacturing, where he employs thousands of workers.
