The handover took place in May, at a solemn ceremony organized with the participation of high-level government and business actors. The Kumasi Wastewater Treatment Plant was designed and built by the Pureco-Unit Consortium for one of Ghana's largest privately held businesses, the Jospong Group of Companies.

The Hungarian export credit agency, EXIM, provided financing for the investment in the form of a so-called customer loan, where the client provided the loans to the Ghanaian party, thus ensuring the implementation of the project, the success of the Hungarian consortium's exports, and a stable financial return.
