Description	This dataset contains comprehensive panel data set on a sample of firms within the Ghanaian manufacturing sector. This data was collected in five rounds over the period 1992 to 1998. The first three rounds were annual surveys, referred to here as Waves I – III, as part of the Regional Program on Enterprise Development (RPED) organised by the World Bank. The fourth and fifth rounds of the data each cover two year periods. The data was collected by a team from the Centre for the Study of African Economies (CSAE), University of Oxford, the University of Ghana, Legon and the Ghana Statistical Office. The original sample of 200 firms, which were first surveyed in 1992, was drawn on a random basis from firms contained in the 1987 Census of Manufacturing Activities. The firms panel was broadly representative of the size distribution of firms across the major sectors of Ghana’s manufacturing industry. These sectors include food processing, textiles and garments, wood products and furniture, metal products and machinery.
