Airports Company South Africa (Acsa) has made its first move into Africa with the signing last week of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) to provide advisory and technical consultancy services on all airport-related matters in Ghana. Speaking at the signing ceremony, Bongani Maseko, chief executive of Airports Company South Africa, said: “The focus on Africa remains critical to our business in order that the continent earns its deserved place as a meaningful contender in the global economy.” The agreement with GACL comes in the wake of similar partnerships between Acsa and GVK for the management of Mumbai International Airport in India, and with Invepar at Guarulhos International Airport in São Paulo, Brazil.
