The “One District One Factory” Initiative is a key component of the Industrial Transformation Agenda of the NPP Government. The concept was first introduced by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Presidential Special Initiatives during the past New Patriotic Party (NPP) Administration, as part of an integrated programme for Accelerated Growth and Industrial Development. Originally designated as the Rural Enterprises Development Programme, and later rebranded as the District Industrialization Programme (DIP). It was designed as a comprehensive programme for rural industrialization, involving the setting up of at least one medium to large scale factory in each of the administrative districts of Ghana.
