PRIVATE MILLERS MONITORING OFFLOADING AND SALE OF ZNS MEALIE-MEAL TO ASCERTAIN IMPACT IT WILL HAVE ON THEM
The Millers’ Association of Zambia-MAZ- says it is closely monitoring the offloading and sale of the Zambia National Service Eagles’ mealie meal brand on the market to ascertain the impact it will have on private millers.
Association President Andrew Chintala says this will help members to work on modalities that will ensure they are not disadvantaged by the supply of the ZNS mealie meal on the market.
Mr. Chintala says the issue of ensuring that private millers are not disadvantaged is already receiving active attention from not only the association but government, resulting from the decision to allow ZNS offload cheap mealie meal to all shoprite outlets.
He says the association is currently in talks with the government to ensure that mealie meal prices are stabilized and is positive that the talks will yield results that will stabilize prices.

I think the ZNS move is a good game changer. We the citizens now have a choice other than be subjected to unfair pricing.
May government invest more in the government institution to serve us all. Modest or realistic profit is what should be encouraged and not exploitation of the masses.
Great game changer and we are delighted with the bold move. Let’s see who will want to play fair business practice.
