Wholesale · Accra · Since 1994
We buy in bulk, we store it properly, and we deliver it on the day we said we would. Sacks of refined sugar, drums of frying oil, cartons of everything in between — sold to bakeries, chop bars, caterers and corner shops across Greater Accra.
The workhorse. Fine, free-flowing, consistent crystal size sack to sack — which is what matters when your icing has to look the same on Tuesday as it did on Friday. Sourced from the Komenda mill, packed in woven polypropylene with an inner liner.
Bakers take it by the pallet. We hold four hundred sacks in the dry store at any given moment.
Milled finer, screened twice. Sold in 25kg and 50kg. The caster is what the confectioners on Ring Road ask for by name.
Refined, bleached, deodorised. Neutral in taste, high smoke point, and it does not foam down when the fryer has been running since morning. This is the drum most of our chop bars reorder every fortnight.
We keep it out of the sun. Heat is what turns oil before its time, and a drum that has sat in a hot yard is a drum that will taste of the yard.
5L, 10L and 20L. Sunflower for the kitchens that want a lighter finish; groundnut for the ones that want the flavour to stay in the pan.
Bakery shortening in 15kg blocks, and a soft margarine for bread and pastry work. Cold-chain delivered, never left on the pavement.
Most of our customers do not buy one thing. A typical Tuesday order from a bakery looks like eight sacks of refined, two of icing, four drums of olein and a block of shortening. We build the load, you get one invoice and one delivery.

“A sack of sugar is a promise. If it is damp when it reaches you, the promise was broken somewhere between the mill and your door.”
Osei Provisions started in 1994 as a single stall on the Kaneshie market road, selling sugar by the cup to women who ran chop bars out of their own kitchens. Kwabena Osei had spent eleven years working for a milling company before that, and he knew two things the market did not: how sugar behaves when it is stored badly, and how much of it was being stored badly.
The business grew the slow way — one customer telling another that the sacks from that stall were always dry and always the weight they said they were. By 2003 there was a proper dry store on Adwen Street. By 2011 the oil lines had been added, because the same bakeries buying sugar were buying frying oil from three different people and wanted one invoice instead of three.
Today the depot is run by his daughter, Adjoa Osei, with two trucks, a cold room for the shortening, and a staff of nine. The rule has not changed: stock is rotated, drums are dated, and nothing leaves the yard that we would not cook with ourselves.
