Ghanaian-owned food processing company Samba Foods Limited has reported a significant improvement in its financial and operational performance for the 2025 fiscal year, recording a net profit after tax of approximately GH¢265,000 after posting a loss of about GH¢245,000 in 2024.
The company disclosed the results at the “Facts Behind the Figures” forum organised by the Ghana Stock Exchange in Accra on September 9, 2026, where its Managing Director, Dr. Mrs. Leticia Osafo-Addo, and members of her executive team presented the company’s performance to the press, brokers and representatives of institutional investors.
According to the company, total income more than doubled from the previous year to approximately GH¢1.62 million in 2025, while its gross-profit margin increased sharply from about 7 per cent to 42 per cent.
Operationally, Samba Foods also produced approximately 11 million sachets under the Unifa arrangement, further reflecting the improvement in its business operations during the year.
Cautious about turnaround
Despite the improved financial results, management cautioned against viewing the 2025 performance as a complete turnaround of the company.
It said the key issue going forward would be whether Samba Foods could sustain the improved performance, reduce vulnerabilities and create a broader platform for growth.
Management described the 2025 results as a substantial operational recovery but emphasised that achieving profitability in a single year was not sufficient to establish a sustained turnaround.
The company said stakeholders, investors and the public would receive further updates and relevant details as preparations for post-presentation documentation were completed.
Ghanaian food-processing company
Samba Foods Limited is a Ghanaian-owned food processing and preservation company based in Tema and specialises in the condiments and seasoning market.
Incorporated in 1993, the company commenced operations in the same year and was listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange Alternative Market in 2015.
It has developed and produced ready-to-eat convenience foods of Ghanaian origin and became the first company to commercialise the production and distribution of the traditional local pepper sauce known as SHITO.
The company says it has since grown into a major player in Ghana’s processed food industry.
