A distinguished Ghanaian Industrialist, Mrs. Kate Quartey–Papafio(Dr.) is a firm, proactive and resourceful leader who sees risks and challenges as opportunities for growth and development. To her, gender
cannot be an excuse for non-performance. She founded the Ghanaian cable manufacturing giant Reroy Cables Ltd in 1992 to distribute high-quality electrical cables and as of today, Reroy Cables represent the repositioning of one of the iconic brand names in Ghana’s cable manufacturing and Aluminum application industry which goes beyond its basic power cables business to deliver complete power solution.
As a major player in the production and distribution of power cables, conductors, provision of the electrical power distribution system and strategic contract services to the electricity sector, its business is also linked to electricity distribution and transmission. Reroy has expanded its manufacturing capabilities in Ghana to optimize its global business portfolio and exploring further other geographic deployments and business ventures across the Sub-region. Over the last two decades, she has led Reroy to build a brand, which has now become synonymous with our core values of excellence, integrity and continuous improvement. In view of the increasing complexity and dynamic nature of current challenges facing many of the world's economies, she has led Reroy to focus part of their investments on the development of specialized human resource and technological base. Today, Reroy can confidently boast of a client-focused approach underpinned by responsiveness and keen attention to detail as the hallmark of her service delivery.
