Chromo Labels for export to Ghana
Chromo Labels are among the lines we supply most into Ghana, where food processing, FMCG and pharmaceuticals make up much of the industrial base.
Chromo Labels for Ghana
Demand in Ghana is built on food processing, FMCG, pharmaceuticals and brand protection. Food processing, FMCG and pharmaceuticals in particular buy this range steadily, and the work is repeat work — the die, the material code and the colour target stay on file so a reorder is a phone call rather than a fresh setup.
What decides the specification
With chromo labels the question is always a one-side-coated paper that takes ink well but needs care in damp storage. Humidity is the constraint in Ghana. Board takes up moisture and loses stiffness, so cartons going to Ghana are run on a heavier caliper than the same job for a dry market.
Chromo is the workhorse for gummed and wet-glue food labelling, and its weakness is moisture — a chilled or condensating pack is where it stops being the right economy.
A Ghana order for chromo labels arrives against a seasonal pack calendar, so the reorder is usually the same die with a new flavour panel. What already moves from our floor to Ghana is food and cosmetic labels and pharmaceutical labels, so a chromo labels enquiry from Ghana is normally priced and consolidated alongside those. Nhava Sheva to Tema is the leg it travels, and a humid destination is what the board and the ink film have to be specified against for Ghana.
Where this sits against Ghana rules
Which rules apply depends on what the label goes onto. The regime your importer works to in Ghana is Ghana Standards Authority conformity, FDA Ghana registration for food, drugs and cosmetics, English labelling with local registration numbers — and the pack language is English. None of that is what you are specifying when you buy chromo labels, but it is what the rest of your Ghana consignment travels under, so it is worth knowing which of your items it catches and which it does not.
Getting it to Ghana
Nhava Sheva to Tema — 20 to 26 days. 26 days in a container is long enough for the hold to swing between damp nights and hot afternoons many times over. Landing into Ghana’s humid air, board and paper take up moisture fast once the doors open, so chromo labels for Ghana travel shrink-wrapped on the pallet.
In this range
The economical chromo paper workhorse, gummed or self-adhesive — 2 product lines in all.

Questions
Chromo Labels in Ghana — questions we are asked
Do you supply chromo labels in Ghana?
Yes. Everything is manufactured at our own works in Rajouri Garden, New Delhi and despatched from there. Nhava Sheva to Tema — 20 to 26 days.
What do Ghana customers use chromo labels for?
Food processing, FMCG and pharmaceuticals mainly. Food and cosmetic labels, pharmaceutical labels, security seals, carton labels — this range covers the part of that list it applies to.
Is there a minimum order for chromo labels to Ghana?
No fixed minimum for chromo labels. Ghana consignments are quoted per job and usually consolidated with the other lines going the same way, which is what makes a smaller Ghana run workable. Nhava Sheva to Tema — 20 to 26 days.
How do Ghana buyers usually order chromo labels?
Against a seasonal pack calendar, so the reorder is usually the same die with a new flavour panel — that is the pattern across most of our Ghana work in this range. Tell us the quantity and the reorder interval and we will quote the die and the material once, then hold both on file for Ghana repeats.
