We are an Indian men's clothing manufacturer and exporter, and we are looking for someone based in Accra, Ghana who can help us identify and approach genuine clothing importers, wholesalers, distributors, and large retailers.

We are particularly interested in someone who already understands the **Accra clothing market** and knows where serious wholesalers and importers operate.

# Reporting

You will maintain a simple report containing:

| Business | Contact Person | Phone/WhatsApp | Location | Business Type | Products | Current Source | Requirement | Interest Level | Follow-up |
