Prampram (Gbugbla), the capital of Ningo-Prampram, is 15 minutes' drive from the port city of Tema and 45 minutes from Accra, the national capital, and is an emerging center of industrial activities.
The town is set to become an international hub as the government has acquired more than 60 acres of land to construct the country's first Aerotropolis.
Prampram has some of the cleanest white sand beaches in the country, dotted with several pleasure spots for tourists and holidaymakers.
The town is home to the first and only bulletproof police station in Ghana, built by the Danes.
A small English trading fort, Fort Vernon, built in 1742, is located in Prampram.[2]
A video showing the Dancing Pallbearers, carrying a coffin and dancing to remember the deceased person's life, soon became viral, and later an internet meme.
In February 2021, Romco Group opened a non-ferrous recycling facility in Prampram, consisting of two furnaces.[3]
