Patricia Poku Diaby: Ghana’s Wealthiest Female Entrepreneur with $720 Million Net Worth

Ghana, once hailed as one of Africa’s fastest-growing economies, has recently faced economic challenges. However, the country remains a favorable environment for business and investment. It’s home to over 100 multimillionaires, many of whom keep a low profile. Among the publicly recognized wealthy, the number of men significantly exceeds that of women. Patricia Poku Diaby stands out as the only woman with a net worth reaching $720 million, leading the list of affluent women in Ghana.

In 2023, Patricia Poku Diaby secured her place as the 12th richest individual in Ghana, boasting a net worth of $720 million. This achievement places her among the ranks of Ghana’s wealthiest, alongside prominent figures such as Osei Kwame Despite, Charles Ampofo, and Dr. Joseph Siaw Agyepong.

Patricia Poku Diaby is a seasoned entrepreneur with more than 29 years of experience. Her journey began in Abidjan, working at her father’s trading and transport company. This experience laid the foundation for her own venture, Plot Enterprise, which she established in Côte d’Ivoire. Recognizing the potential to add value to raw materials, Patricia launched Plot Enterprise (Gh) Ltd, a state-of-the-art cocoa processing facility in Takoradi, in 2010. The company quickly gained international acclaim and is recognized for its excellence in Food Safety Management Systems.

Expanding her business interests, Patricia acquired a cocoa grinding facility in Abidjan through Plot Enterprise SA, Côte d’Ivoire, furthering her goal of horizontal integration and offering multiple-origin products. Today, she oversees two cocoa sourcing companies in Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire, where she serves as the founder and chair of the board of directors.
