Companies across Ghana’s port and logistics industry are taking part in the 2026 LCB Corporate Games, with 16 institutions competing over a 12-to-14-week tournament designed to promote fitness, teamwork and stronger business relationships.
The fifth edition is being held across the Accra and Tema zones. The leading teams from each zone will progress to a grand finale, where the overall champion will be decided.
The competition brings together organisations operating in Ghana’s ports, shipping, freight and logistics sectors. Alongside the sporting fixtures, the event is intended to give employees the chance to meet and build relationships away from their normal professional responsibilities.
The Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA) is among the participating institutions and has entered two teams this year: the Fire Department and the Mechanical Department.
GPHA has regularly taken part in the corporate games, joining companies and public institutions connected to Ghana’s wider port and logistics ecosystem.
The tournament is organised by LCB Worldwide Ghana Limited as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme. The company says the initiative is designed both to bring industry stakeholders together and to increase public understanding of its work and services.
Philomena Ocloo, an official of LCB Worldwide Ghana, said the event was an important way for the company to engage with the community and explain the role it plays.
“It is very necessary for us to give back to the community so as we create awareness of what we literally do. Because most of the times, people don’t know what disinfection is all about, so as we undertake this particular project every particular year, it is a way of letting the society that we happen to be around know that this is what we are into,” she said.
She added that the annual games provide LCB Worldwide Ghana with an opportunity to interact directly with the wider business community while pursuing its CSR aims through recreation, physical activity and social engagement.
Organisers believe the tournament can support healthier workplaces by encouraging staff to take part in sport. They also say it creates an informal setting in which participating companies can maintain and develop existing professional connections.
Felix Segbaya, another LCB Worldwide Ghana official, said the competition reflected the company’s desire to build a broader relationship with its business partners beyond commercial activity.
“I think at the end of the day, it sends a signal to our business partners that we are not just about business. We’re looking to send a sense of good health and all that, friendliness amongst ourselves. So, in a way, it has brought us together and it has increased the way we do business,” he said.
The games therefore combine competition and networking, bringing together employees from institutions that regularly work with one another within Ghana’s port and logistics industry.
Fixtures will continue in Accra and Tema before the strongest teams move on to the grand finale. The winning institution will receive GH₵20,000, while the first runner-up will be awarded GH₵10,000. The second runner-up will take home GH₵5,000.
With the tournament scheduled to run for up to 14 weeks, teams will now compete for qualification from the two zones and a place in the final.
The organisers hope the fifth edition will deepen cooperation among companies in the sector while encouraging fitness, teamwork, recreation and a stronger sense of community across Ghana’s port and logistics industry.
