NIGERIAN DRONE STARTUP OPENS GHANA FACTORY

The expansion marks Terrahaptix's first manufacturing facility outside Nigeria. The company will produce pilotless aircraft and defense technologies at the Ghana location, capitalizing on growing regional demand driven by security threats from insurgent groups. West Africa has faced intensifying militant activity in recent years, with armed groups operating across multiple countries. This demand environment is pushing defense technology investments in the region. The decision to base manufacturing in Ghana reflects the startup's confidence in regional market opportunities and production capabilities. Ghana's relatively stable business environment and strategic location make it an attractive hub for serving West African customers. Details on production capacity, timeline, and specific drone models were not disclosed. Terrahaptix joins a growing sector of African technology companies developing indigenous defense and security solutions rather than relying solely on imports.
