Located at East Legon, Accra, A&C Mall was the first shopping mall to be opened in Ghana. The enterprise, founded by a Ghanaian, Andrew Kwabena Asamoah, was birthed in 2006 and was commissioned by the then-president of Ghana John Agyekum Kufour.

The vision of Mr. Asamoah who had spent three decades in the diaspora was to “ignite the retail sector in Ghana” hence the decision to “come back home and contribute positively to the development of my country.”
