Our Story

Ghana's First. Built to Last.

YACO CornFlakes is Ghana's first locally produced breakfast cereal brand, manufactured by Y. A. Antwi Enterprise. A Ghanaian family business with deep roots in local manufacturing. For decades, the breakfast cereal aisle in Ghana has been the exclusive territory of foreign brands. The name YACO is not just a product label. It represents a deliberate act of local ambition: the belief that Ghanaians have the talent, the infrastructure, and the drive to produce a cereal that competes with anything on the market, on Ghanaian soil, with Ghanaian hands.

From the factory floor at Y. A. Antwi Enterprise to the kitchen table of a family in Accra or Kumasi, every step of the YACO journey is rooted in Ghana. Each 50g pack is fortified with Vitamins A, C, and Iron, is a certified source of dietary fibre, and carries full FDA certification, meeting the highest food safety standards in the country. It is crunchy, clean, and designed to fuel Ghanaian families through their mornings without compromise.

And because YACO is manufactured locally, it can be priced in a way that imported brands simply cannot match, making quality breakfast nutrition accessible to households across every income bracket. YACO was about introducing a new idea to the Ghanaian market: that local is not second best. That message has resonated, and YACO is only getting started.

Our Vision

A Ghanaian Brand. A Continental Vision.

To become the most trusted and beloved breakfast cereal brand in Ghana and a beacon for what African manufacturing can achieve. To start at every Ghanaian breakfast table, grow across West Africa, and ultimately stand on the continent as proof that world-class food can be made in Africa, by Africans, for Africans.

Our Mission

Nourishing Families. Building Ghana.

To nourish Ghanaian families with an affordable, nutritious, and proudly homegrown cereal, while actively contributing to the growth of the local economy, the creation of Ghanaian jobs, and the long-term development of a strong, self-sufficient food manufacturing sector in Ghana. Every pack of YACO sold is a small act of economic patriotism: money that stays in Ghana, jobs that stay in Ghana, and a story that grows in Ghana and eventually far beyond it.
