Ghana Club 100 The Ghana Club 100 is a yearly official list of the top 100 companies in Ghana. The compilation was first done in 1998 by the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) with the aim of recognition of the top 100 companies and to encourage competition and improvement of company products and services in the country. It is based on the responses of a survey conducted annually by the GIPC, which companies can voluntarily participate in by submitting various information, including their financial statements. Due to the voluntary nature of the survey, in some years the number of companies listed has been fewer than 100. Most of the companies listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange are included in Ghana Club 100.
