In the words of the great philosopher- Plato; “Beginnings frame everything that comes after them. With careful planning and a deliberate approach, your beginning can set everything that comes after it up for success”. This philosophy also drives the board, management, and staff of Whyte Cleon Limited as the organization breaks into new frontiers in Ghana.
This historical, ground-breaking event with the Ghanaian corporates took place on the morning of Tuesday, May 25th, 2021 at the Marriott Hotel, Accra, Ghana.
The event commenced with a welcome address by the Chairman of the board of directors – Mr Bismarck Rewane, who called in virtually to welcome everyone to the first Whyte Cleon breakfast and introductory presentation. Mr. Rewane, spoke eloquently about the need for continuous and developmental trade agreements between African nations, which he said is the true African answer to Africa becoming a force to recon with globally.
Riding on the back of Mr Rewane’s opening speech, the MD/CEO- of Whyte Cleon Limited, Mrs ‘Nireti Oyeniyi-Adebayo, spoke further on the Ghanaian venture and the reason for the company’s strategic entry into the Ghana economy.

She concluded with this: ‘Now that we are here, we can seek opportunities to work together. We would like to assure everyone, that we pay close attention to our business and to the people we outsource to organizations because we believe people matter, what they do matter, and how it is done matters to us.
Officially introducing Whyte Cleon Limited to the corporates, Ms. Linda Ampah with visible enthusiasm, reeled out the decade long company profile of Whyte Cleon, which was quickly followed by the airing of the documentary showing the 10 years journey of Whyte Cleon Limited in Nigeria.
