QNET has intensified its deliberate fight against scams and elevated its level of transparency to law enforcement agencies by establishing and opening a Compliance office in Ghana.
The 26-year-old international direct selling company that specializes in lifestyle and wellness products is leaving no stone unturned in tackling the menace of impersonators misrepresenting the name and products of the brand for their selfish gains.
The Director General of the Criminal Investigation Department, DCOP Lydia Donkor, noted while officially opening the QNET Compliance Office in Accra on Wednesday, 16th July, 2025:
“This office launch is very symbolic. QNET is taking steps to ensure their business name or legitimacy is not marred by reports of scams and illegal claims using their name. As law enforcement, we are also pleased that today’s opening is quite significant, because we will be able to partner with them or they partner with us to ensure that the right thing is done.”
DCOP Donkor noted that: “It is good for QNET to have this symbolic office. If people need to know something about QNET, this is a legitimate business they can come to. Having this office will help, so that we can weed out people who take advantage of their name to do illegal things or scam people. It is time we reduce these scams that are happening within our country and outside. So, on this day, we are pleased to have their executives here. The office is operational, the business is open and people can identify with it when they need to.”
According to the officials of QNET, the new QNET Compliance Office has three clear objectives and commitments and they are:
1. A Commitment to Accountability – This office will serve as the single point of contact for all regulatory and legal matters concerning QNET in Ghana. Here, QNET will engage proactively with all government bodies, from EOCO, the Police to the Ghana Immigration Service and beyond. QNET lawyers and compliance officers will listen, respond, and ensure that QNET operates with full transparency and accountability.
2. A Commitment to Enforcement – The office has a mandate to monitor the activities of QNET’s independent distributors across the country. QNET will ensure that they operate within the boundaries of the law, respecting both the spirit and the letter of ethical business conduct. Where breaches occur, QNET will act decisively—whether that means disciplinary action or handing them over to law enforcement for prosecution.
3. A Commitment to Protection – Above all, the office will serve to protect the public from fraudsters misusing QNET’s name. Protect QNET’s partners from misinformation. Protect victims of scams by supporting investigations and, where possible, pre-empting crime through intelligence sharing with the security agencies such as EOCO, Ghana Police and Ghana Immigration Service.
These commitments were listed by Lawyer Naana Quartey, Global Compliance Officer for QNET.
Present at the historic QNET Compliance office opening were Ramya Chandrasekaran, Chief Communications Officer for the QI group, parent company of QNET, Biram Fall, Regional General Manager for QNET in the sub-Saharan Africa region, Col (rtd) Rashid Salifu, Managing Director of Bosumtwi Industries and QNET Training Centre in Accra. Other officials of the Ghana Police Service and other security agencies were in attendance.
Cross section of stakeholders believes the announcement of QNET’s anti-scam partnership with Economic and Organised Crime Office, EOCO and the opening of the QNET Compliance office mark a huge turning point in the company’s fight against impersonators and scammers misusing its name and it signifies a giant step toward reclaiming its reputation in Ghana and beyond.
