Let’s explore the local and second-hand clothing industry and examine its impact on locally manufactured garments in Makola and Agbogbloshie. We will discuss the winners and losers in this market, and you'll also have the opportunity to shop for locally made clothes and other items as we go along.

The global second-hand clothing (SHC) trade has a long history. Currently, African countries are the primary importers of the lowest-quality second-hand clothing, a trend that significantly affects local clothing makers and traditional prints.

Kantamanto, located in Accra's central business district, Ghana, is the largest second-hand clothing market in West Africa. Approximately 15 million items, including used clothing, bags, shoes, belts, and hats, are brought into the Kantamanto market weekly. This influx includes unwanted donated clothing, commonly called "Obroni w'awu," which means "the white man is dead" in the local dialect.

Kantamanto, located in Accra's central business district in Ghana, is the largest second-hand clothing market in West Africa. Approximately 15 million items, including used clothing, bags, shoes, belts, and hats, are brought into the Kantamanto market each week. This influx includes unwanted donated clothing from the West, commonly referred to as "Obroni w'awu," which translates to "the white man is dead" in the local dialect. This phrase reflects the belief that when someone dies in the Western world, their clothes are often given to charity, and these items eventually end up in Africa." The market boasts over 30,000 shops that sell a wide range of items, many of which are unexpected, and it has been operational for over 60 years. Let's dive into the market as we interact with the sellers and learn about the business model.
