Komenda Sugar Development Company Limited[1] (also known as Komenda Sugar Factory) is a Ghanaian factory established in 1964 and its operations ground to a halt in the early 1990s. This was due to poor management and technical issues.[2]

The sugar factory collapsed and it was inaugurated by the erstwhile John Mahama government in 2016.[3] [4] [5] This was made possible by a loan facility of 35 million dollars from an Indian EXIM Bank.[6]
