Rural developments are key to the overall socio-economic success of Ghana. The Royal Senchi hotel, nearing completion just South of Adome Bridge, on the road to Akosombo, is a landmark investment in the area. Built with a great deal of 'African taste', this river-side-based operation, is creating nearly 200 new, direct-employment opportunities as well a great deal of secondary employment potential. The organisation behind the hotel has made a great commitment to the ecological protection of the surrounding areas and is keen to promote hiking and nature discovery as part of their roll-out plan - this will in turn boost the local economy, and ecology! Rural development potential is present in abundance around Ghana - it just takes innovative entrepreneurs to identify, and implement, appropriate developments, that will boost local, as well as international, opportunities.
