Prislorm Enterprise

You walk the short lane off Akenkan Street and find the bright green Adams Design sign facing the market square in Apenkwa. Enter to discover a tidy workshop where needles flash and bolts of colourful fabric line the walls in rows. A quick chat begins, followed by precise measurements taken with a smile and a clear plan shown on sturdy boards. No dusty storefront or rough corner shop here, and the young staff speak English and Twi with ease.

I walk down Kwashie Bezrot Street in Apenkwa and hear the chatter of neighbors spilling out of Adom Ara Kwa Shop, a family-run clothes shop where everyone knows each other. You’ll find neatly folded ready-made Kente, batik and gingham fabrics hung on wooden racks beside secondhand classics that still carry that crisp, clean feel. It is a short stroll from the Apenkwa Market roundabout, tucked between the small chop bar and the telephone booth that buzzes with calls. The owner greets you with a warm “Good morning, how are you?” and lets you touch the cloth before deciding. It has been there for years, a quiet landmark for anyone needing good material or a friendly chat.

Adphase Ventures is a friendly neighbourhood copyshop nestled on Dzagble Avenue in Apenkwa, Accra. You can pop in for sharp printing, clear photocopying and quick typing on any day they are open. Expect the usual hustle of local students and workers getting their documents sorted at a fair price. It sits right in the busy heart of Apenkwa, close to the main road where everyone passes by. Just call ahead to confirm hours before you walk in.
