#DentaaShow #ODANAnetwork #A&Cmall

He sold all his properties in America and Europe to set up A Solar powered shopping mall in Ghana!!

In this video, we'll be talking to the founder of A Solar powered shopping mall in GHANa, He sold all his properties in America and Europe to set up this mall.

If you're interested in understanding how he sustained A&C mall for so many years, then this is the video for you. We'll be talking to He about his experience, the mall's history, and the challenges he faced along the way. This is definitely a video you don't want to miss!


A&C Development was founded by Andrew and Cecilia Asamoah, the main objective of the company is to develop first-class, ultra-modern commercial lifestyle centers in Ghana.
Over nearly two decades, A&C has earned a reputation for creativity and innovation in the building industry and is perhaps best known for its flagship project A&C Mall – the first mall in Ghana, which evolved into the first mixed-use center, with a gross leasable area of 30,000m² laid out over five acres of prime land in the heart of Accra’s largest residential mid- to a high-end community of East Legon.

He built his first house at the age of 26 and at 68, Mr. Andrew Kwabena Asamoah, Executive Chairman of A & C Development Co. Ltd, which owns the A & C Shopping Mall (now A&C Square) at East Legon in Accra, is nowhere near taking a break from getting structures off the ground.

A former World Health Organisation (WHO) director, Mr. Asamoah had to brace enormous risk and defy various advice that malls would not do well in Ghana to construct the first landmark shopping mall in the country, the A&C Shopping Mall, which today has many other facilities.

Being a monument with astronomical investment, constructing the mall was not attractive even to the financial services sector and it took the tenacity and leadership of Mr. Asamoah to get the facility off the ground.

The executive chairman, therefore, went by a prudent plan to build the facility in phases; the main mall with a car park and children’s playground; a fitness center with an Olympic-size swimming pool, and two office blocks in two phases.

Not only did the facility put the country on the world stage, but it also brought a befitting status to the country as a growing economy with a growing middle class. Today, not only has the Andrew and Cecilia (A&C) Development Co he found making inroads in the real estate and consumer shopping sub-sectors, the Capital Finance International – a reputable print journal and online resource reporting on business, economics, and finance – has awarded Mr. Asamoah with the Corporate Leadership Award for 2013.

Andy is a brick-and-mortar sort of person, who likes everything construction, and real estate, explaining his passion to build his first house at age 26, to fulfill a desire to move his parents from a rented apartment into one they could call their own.

A&C Development is a fast-growing real estate and construction company that is building properties in many parts of the capital city, its flagship being the shopping mall.

In line with his philosophy to keep improving services and facilities on the premises to “wow” patrons of the mall, the company is continuously developing structures, improving services, and transforming the place to attract customers.

A&C Development has completed the construction of phase two fitness center and swimming pool and a third phase business plaza. The final phase four, a combination of an upscale retail and office plaza, is also completed. The expansion includes an underground car park.

Already, the company’s office and residential properties at East Legon, Dzorwulu, and other parts of the city are at different stages of development.

Career
After obtaining a General Certificate of Education (G.C.E.) Ordinary Level and RSA certificate from Ghana, Mr. Asamoah qualified as a lawyer and obtained certificates in public relations, journalism, and many other disciplines from other jurisdictions.

Mr. Asamoah has had a fruitful career with the World Health Organisation (WHO), which started at the prime age of 22. His work within the WHO has taken him to the WHO Regional Office for Africa in Brazzaville, Congo, Nigeria right up to the WHO headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.

His hard work at WHO saw him rise through the ranks into various positions, including Chief of Personnel; Special Adviser to the Director-General of WHO on Constitutional Reforms and Regional Arrangements, and Director, Career Development Service/Global Security Coordinator.

He retired as the Director of Administration and Finance at the Regional WHO Office for Europe in Copenhagen, Denmark.

⁣xmnw IIIIIIIII: Final Plastering and Beginning of Artwork/Painting

⁣QTV NEWS Gambia | 26 Aug 2021

(14 Jan 2019) LEADIN:
Rammed earth is a construction method that has been around for millennia, but it's attracting renewed interest in countries like the USA and Australia.
In Ghana a construction company is returning to the technique of rammed earth building, promoting its eco-friendly and economical technique.
STORYLINE:
This construction worker is part of a team building an eco-friendly house near Ghana's capital city, Accra.
He is compressing a mixture of raw materials mostly sourced from within two kilometres.
When the temporary structure is later removed it will reveal a solid wall – the beginning of a house.
The technique is called rammed earth, as co-founder of Hive Earth Kwame de Heer explains.
"Rammed earth is a really old technique. Here in Ghana we have always built houses using mud, but here we have modernised it. We use a mixture of laterite which contains sand, a bit of silt, clay and some stones. We pour this into a temporary structure after being mixed. After pouring in eight inches we compress it to about four inches. We are mimicking a sedimentary rock, but speeding up the process. It's man-made stone."
About five percent of the raw materials used in this method requires imported cement, which is necessary as a stabiliser.
As well as being more eco-friendly, Hive Earth says it costs a third less than building with sandcrete blocks, commonly used in Ghana.
Foster Osae-Akonnor heads up Ghana's Green Building Council:
"Once you can get materials from the locality that you are working, then it helps to reduce the carbon footprint. In addition, comparing rammed earth to concrete, you save all the embodied energy that will be required in the manufacturing of cement."
Compared to other building materials, a very high amount of energy is consumed to produce cement. In addition cement is imported into Ghana.
Another of Hive Earth's rammed earth projects, in Accra, reveals its interesting aesthetic, which is the result of the ramming process.
The technique is well suited to the hot climate of Ghana as it keeps the room temperature cool, says co-owner of Hive Earth, British-Ghanaian entrepreneur Joelle Eyeson.
"Rammed earth is sound proof, it's termite proof, it's thermally insulative – so it regulates the internal room temperature. Because the walls are so thick it takes a while for the heat to penetrate through to the internal room. Our walls can be anything from 12 to 15 inches thick. It's earthquake resistant as well, due to the monolithic nature of the walls as compared to sandcrete blocks, because the walls are monolithic. With sandcrete blocks you have the mortar joints so it's easier for the wall to shake and become disinbursed, whereas with rammed earth it's just one straight monolithic wall. It's as strong as concrete as well – it can last for hundreds of years."
A long-standing example of rammed earth is the Great Wall of China.
Williams Nimailo from the Ghana Bureau of Standards helped draw up the country's new building code.
Allowance is made for rammed earth under both traditional and green building construction methods. Provision is made for modern materials such as clay-fired bricks or cement blocks.
Akosua Obeng is an architect who contracted Hive Earth to build the external walls of a luxury complex in Accra.
Obeng believes using rammed earth techniques in a high-end development will help to change perceptions about how earth materials can enhance design and architecture.
Hive Earth have produced eight rammed earth projects since starting up in 2016, and have many more projects planned in Ghana and regionally.

The President of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo, granted FRANCE 24 and RFI an interview against the backdrop of the Paris summit on the financing of African economies. He said that he sees the jihadist terrorism that's striking the neighbouring Sahel region as "the most important security challenge" for Ghana and the other 14 ECOWAS countries. He also called the Covid-19 vaccine coverage a "scandal", as less than 2 percent of vaccines administered worldwide have been in Africa.
