Ghana Guesthouse Metal Bed & Mattress Project | Zehao Furniture
About Ghana
Ghana is a stable, English-speaking country in West Africa, bordered by Côte d’Ivoire, Burkina Faso, and Togo, with its southern coastline on the Gulf of Guinea. The capital is Accra, and Tema — part of the Greater Accra Region — hosts the country’s largest seaport, the Port of Tema, which handles the bulk of containerized imports including furniture and hospitality supplies. Ghana’s growing tourism, student housing, and workforce-accommodation sectors drive steady demand for guesthouses, hostels, and budget hotels, most of which rely on imported metal beds and mattresses. This makes Tema a practical delivery point for turnkey furniture packages supplied from China.
Project Overview
In early 2025, a Ghana-based hospitality developer awarded Zehao Furniture a full-room furniture package for a new guesthouse in the Tema corridor. The scope included 100 single-occupancy metal bed frames with PU headboards and 100 high-density foam mattresses with PVC waterproof covers. All units were produced to the buyer’s specified dimensions and branded with the T-Tekpor logo.
Client & Procurement Background
The client operates budget guesthouses and hostels in Ghana and needed a single-source manufacturer capable of both metal bed fabrication and mattress customization. Key purchasing drivers were consistent sizing across all 100 rooms, moisture-resistant mattress protection, durable metal construction, and direct container delivery to Tema port.

Logistics & Delivery

Quality Assurance
Before shipment, the buyer reviewed pre-production samples for frame welding, headboard stitching, and mattress compression recovery. Zehao’s in-house QC checked each lot for dimension tolerance, foam density, PVC seam sealing, and carton integrity. The factory holds SGS, EN 747, EN 1725, CE, and ISO 9001 certifications.
Project Outcome
The order was produced on schedule, inspected against the approved samples, and shipped CIF Tema. The single-source package allowed the client to align bed frames, mattresses, and branded covers in one production run, simplifying procurement and installation for the 100-room guesthouse.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Zehao customize bed dimensions and colors for my guesthouse project?
Yes. We produce metal bed frames and mattresses to customer-specified dimensions, finishes, headboard materials, and branded logos. This Ghana project used 1900 × 1000 mm beds with black frames, beige PU headboards, and T-Tekpor branded mattress covers.
What mattress options do you offer for humid climates like Ghana?
For this project we supplied 28D high-density foam mattresses with heat-sealed PVC waterproof covers. The PVC layer protects against moisture and simplifies cleaning, which is important for guesthouses in coastal or tropical regions.
Can you ship guesthouse furniture directly to Tema, Ghana?
Yes. We regularly ship to West African ports including Tema. Terms can be FOB Tianjin or CIF destination port. This order was consolidated into one 20 ft container under CIF Tema terms.
Do you provide branded headboards or mattress covers?
Yes. We can add customer logos or hostel names to headboards and mattress covers through printing or embroidery, depending on material and order volume.
What is the typical lead time for a 100-room guesthouse furniture order?
Lead time depends on material readiness and shipping schedule. For this Ghana order, production and delivery to Tianjin port were completed within 50 days after the 30% deposit was received.
Do you only supply prison and dormitory beds, or also hospitality beds?
While our heavy-duty bunk beds are widely used in prisons, dormitories, and worker camps, we also manufacture single metal beds and mattresses for guesthouses, hostels, and budget hotels. The same steel-frame engineering and quality control apply.
