I think you might find its a pretty crowded market so unless you have something unique to offer it might be difficult.
Also the government has just changed the requirements for foreigners setting up businesses in Ghana so I suggest you look at the GIPC website and see what the reqirements are

GIPC is the Ghana Investment Promotion Council and if you google it you will find how to contact them.
Foreigners need a minimum of one million dollars to start a business in Ghana and are not allowed to be involved in retail trade in markets or similar areas.
You might also need a Ghanaian partner and you have to register with GIPC to begin your business.
I suggerst you look on their website for further details
