The Ghana International Trade Commission (GITC) has denied a petition for a waiver of 35.77 per cent Anti-Dumping Duty (ADD) imposed on consignments of aluminium coils and circles imported from China by the Asadtek Group of Companies.
The GITC stated, “The imported consignments were not brought into Ghana at fair values, hence constituted dumping”.
Asadtek Group, headquartered in Ghana's port city Tema, has extended excellence and success in the aluminium products space into manufacturing roofing products, Kitchenware, etc. On June 30, 2023, the company petitioned the Commission to request a waiver of 35.77 per cent Anti-Dumping Duty (ADD) imposed on its consignments.
ASADTEK claimed that the consignments of aluminium coils and circles were not dumped. In a statement signed by its Executive Secretary, Frank Agyekum, the Commission “considered the facts contained in the filed Petition and the 29-page supporting documents”.
