ACCRAbuyer room · privateManage buyer room

A multi-vertical, weekly-refreshed cost-of-living panel for Greater Accra, Ghana — not a single price list. Headline asset is the 'Makola basket': a fixed 10-staple household basket (rice, palm oil, tomato, plantain, yam, onion, eggs, tilapia, chicken, bread) priced weekly with a documented sampling protocol — field collection every Tuesday-Wednesday, at least three sellers per item, median quote taken, outliers dropped — benchmarked across open markets (Makola, Madina, Kaneshie, Agbogbloshie and rotating sites) against supermarkets, where the same basket costs materially more. Breadth beyond the basket: 21 tracked items across 3 categories with per-item price-by-market, seasonal outlook and long-run history; plus 16 verticals total — live cedi forex rates including bureau rates, pump fuel prices by OMC, rent medians by neighbourhood, school fees across 4 tiers, ECG power tariffs, trotro transit fares by route, student hostel fees, mobile data bundle pricing ranked across MTN/Telecel/AT, and Ghana T-bill auction rates with a calculator. Supporting layers include a documented crop/seasonal calendar that flags which items are in their typically-cheaper months, and a week-over-week change log of fares, fees, prices, tariffs and deals.
