What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Locally made metal trunk sellers in Accra are reporting a difficult period due to changing consumer preferences among senior high school students. These students are increasingly opting for suitcases, which are viewed as more modern and easier to transport on wheels. One seller noted that sales this year were poor, with only 20 trunks sold compared to over 50 in previous years.
