Tema Station Market
is a bustling commercial and transport hub located in Accra, Ghana, and is distinct from the main Community 1 Market in the city of Tema itself. The “station” refers to its primary function as a major bus terminal, but it has a large, vibrant adjoining market.

Key Features

Location: The Tema Station market is situated in Accra, near government ministries and agencies, not within the industrial city of Tema. The actual bus station location is near the Theodosia Okoh Hockey Pitch.
Dual Function: It operates simultaneously as a major public transport terminal (a “car station”) with mini-buses (trotros) going to various parts of Greater Accra, and as an extensive market area.
Goods Sold: The market features hundreds of retailers selling a wide variety of goods, including:
- Food and drinks
- Fresh vegetables
- Secondhand clothes and shoes
- Jewellery and mobile phone accessories
- Skincare products and stationery
- Electrical appliances
Atmosphere: It is a busy, vibrant place known for its lively rhythm and mix of economic activity. Head porters (Kayayei) are readily available to help shoppers with their purchases.
Accessibility: It is an easily accessible location from various directions within Accra due to its central role in the city’s transport network.

This market is considered a crucial center for small and medium economic activities, mainly serving workers in the surrounding enclave and daily commuters.
