Last month, after field investigation and market research, Ghanaian customers decided to purchase a YG brand egg crate making machine to solve the problems of low packaging efficiency and high cost in the local egg industry. The customer had been buying traditional plastic pallets before, which were easy to break and difficult to recycle. YG’s pulp egg tray machine has become its first choice for upgrading its packaging line due to its high efficiency, energy saving, and degradable characteristics.

Customer purchase process
- Demand docking
A farm in Ghana contacted YG through the website and proposed making pulp egg trays. The YG team 3 quickly provided a solution. The recommended model is the YG-4*4 fully automatic egg crate making machine, which supports the production of 3,500 egg trays per hour and can be adapted to 6, 8, and 10 trays by replacing the mold. - Technical verification
The customer took the initiative to visit our factory and demonstrated the process of waste paper pulping, vacuum forming, hot pressing, and drying. The customer was very satisfied with our egg tray machine equipment and signed a purchase contract on the spot to order 1 YG-4*4 egg tray machine and matching molds. - Delivery and commissioning
The equipment was shipped to Ghana by sea via Tema Port. After the customer received the equipment, the YG engineer immediately provided the customer with online installation guidance. - Training and after-sales
The YG team provided customers with 1 week of operation training, covering raw material ratio, mold replacement, troubleshooting, etc. At the same time, it promised to respond to after-sales needs 24 hours a day.
Analysis of the egg tray machine market in Ghana
- Demand driven. With the implementation of the international plastic packaging tax, local companies are in urgent need of environmentally friendly alternatives. YG’s egg crate making machine uses waste paper as raw material, and the cost is only 60% of that of plastic trays.
- Policy support. The Ghanaian government revised the tax law in 2024, exempting 10% of the value-added tax for locally manufactured environmentally friendly packaging equipment and providing a 5-year tax exemption period.
- Competitive advantage. The existing egg tray machines in the Ghanaian market are mainly semi-automatic models, while YG’s fully automatic egg tray machine has increased efficiency by 3 times and supports customized production.
Ghana egg tray machine customer use
After the project was put into production, the Ghanaian farmers’ egg tray self-sufficiency rate increased from 0 to 100%, saving a lot of packaging costs annually. The egg tray production line consumes an average of 8 tons of waste paper per day, reduces the use of plastic by 120 tons/year, and has obtained the “Green Enterprise” certification from the Ghana Ministry of Environment. YG has reached cooperation intentions with 3 Ghanaian egg companies to further expand its market share.
