DTRT Apparel is quickly becoming one of the leading players in Africa’s textile and apparel sector. Based in Ghana, this homegrown company is not only making waves in global supply chains but also standing as a symbol of African resilience, innovation, and empowerment.

With a workforce of nearly 2,500 people—primarily young Ghanaians—DTRT Apparel demonstrates the enormous potential of African-led manufacturing. The company specializes in high-quality garment production, serving both local and international markets. But beyond production, DTRT is contributing to broader socio-economic development by offering stable employment, skill development, and long-term career paths for thousands of workers.

The company’s growth has been fueled in part by a strategic partnership with Verod Capital, a private equity firm that invests in high-growth businesses across West Africa. Verod Capital provided not only financial support but also crucial industry expertise, helping DTRT scale operations and deepen its impact in the region. This collaboration reflects the power of Pan-African investment models, where African capital is used to grow African businesses for the benefit of African people.

DTRT’s success is a testament to what can happen when vision, investment, and local talent align. As African countries continue to seek solutions for youth unemployment, industrial growth, and economic independence, companies like DTRT Apparel offer a viable path forward. Their story serves as a blueprint for a future where Africa manufactures not just goods—but opportunity.
