Africa House (Africa Hydroponics Limited) has strengthened its position as Africa’s leading hydroponics and climate-smart agriculture company with the expansion of its operations into Ghana, where it is establishing Keta Hydroponics by Africa House in the Volta Region.
The expansion marks a significant milestone for sustainable agriculture in coastal Ghana, particularly in Keta—a city with a deep climate history. About four decades ago, large parts of Keta were nearly destroyed by devastating sea incursions linked to climate change. Today, the city is witnessing a new chapter defined by resilience, innovation, and sustainable food production.

With the launch of Keta Hydroponics, Africa House is restoring livelihoods and bringing year-round, climate-resilient farming back to the heart of this historic coastal community.
At the core of the project is a vertical smart hydroponics system capable of producing harvests that surpass conventional soil-based farming on one acre—using a footprint as small as 10 feet by 10 feet. Remarkably, a single 10×10-foot hydroponics unit can outperform an entire acre of traditional farmland while remaining 100 percent organic.
This innovation presents a game-changing solution for regions affected by land degradation, including areas impacted by illegal mining (galamsey), as well as urban and rural communities with poor or exhausted soils. By eliminating dependence on soil quality, Africa House’s systems enable farmers to grow food all year round, including during the dry season, while saving more than 90 percent of water compared to conventional agriculture.
In 2025, Africa House further deepened its footprint in Ghana through a nationwide Ghana Hydroponics Tour, during which women, youth, students, and farmers were trained across the country. In a notable demonstration of inclusiveness, female farmers as old as 60 years from remote communities in the Volta Region were trained in hydroponics, highlighting the simplicity, accessibility, and adaptability of the technology.
What sets Africa House apart is its strong focus on empowerment. Beyond installing systems, the company trains communities to build smart hydroponics systems themselves, ensuring local ownership, sustainability, and long-term impact. This approach aligns with the principle of equipping people with skills rather than short-term support.
Since 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Africa House has trained more than 2,000 people across Africa, working in partnership with governments, academic institutions, and development organizations. Recently, the company collaborated with the University of Ghana and other key stakeholders, reinforcing its leadership in research-driven and community-centered agricultural innovation.
Today, Africa House stands as the largest builder of smart and large-scale hydroponics kits serving households, schools, institutions, and commercial farmers across Africa and beyond.
Looking toward 2026 and the years ahead, Africa House says it remains committed to transforming food production through innovation, strategic partnerships, climate resilience, and a clear mission to advance food security across Africa and the global south.
Agro Climate News reports that the Keta Hydroponics project represents not just an agricultural investment, but a climate adaptation model with the potential to reshape how vulnerable communities grow food in a changing climate.
