According to Forbes, small businesses are the bread and butter of our economy. Through the Green Butterfly Market, we connect talented artisans to potential clients from all walks of life. As a matter of priority, the Green Butterfly project focuses on Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) producing unique handcrafted products in Ghana. Sustainable business builds sustainable communities, and shopping local puts financial power in the hands of local businesses to in turn, fuel our local economy.
Take a walk through our colourful market every first and third Saturday of the month at the Department of Parks and Gardens Head office in Accra next to the Italian Embassy. You will surely be thrilled with the display of creativity and unique craftsmanship we present to you at each of our events. Find a wide array of clothing, accessories, home decor, snacks, various foods and beverages, skincare, haircare amidst other uniqe handicrafts.
Why shop local?
By shopping local, you are giving back to the local community and supporting the efforts of our community businesses. Making a commitment to shop local stimulates our economy positively by cycling money back into our community. You also reduce your carbon footprint by shopping local and reducing the amount of transportation needed to get the product to you. One visit to the Green Butterfly market presents so much gratification, as you are able to meet so many local artisans all in one place. A one stop shop, and a true cultural experience. You could also stumble upon some very amazing deals!
