Africa-Press<\/a> – Mozambique<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Potatoes and onions, mostly imported from South Africa, were becoming scarce in the Zimpeto wholesale market by Wednesday (July 14), O Pa\u00eds reports.<\/p>\n

The few trucks left In the market were almost empty and stalls had little produce compared to what is usually seen there.<\/p>\n

The reason is that merchants are reluctant to travel to South Africa because of the violence there.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe depend on South Africa to supply the market, but there is a lot of damage and sabotage there and, if they see a Mozambican trader arriving, they will attack right away. We prefer not to risk it,\u201d merchant Amadeu Magaia said.<\/p>\n

Amadeu usually makes two trips a week. The last time he was in South Africa was on Thursday of last week, before the wave of violence intensified, and he says that stock is now limited.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t know when we will travel again. It\u2019s not just me; we are all going through this. But life is more important than money,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n

The merchants reckon there is stock for about two more days, after which the market will be \u201con the fly\u201d. The flow of customers has already increased in response to fears of shortages.<\/p>\n

Justino Tovela foresees the situation driving prices up. \u201cIf this product runs out before we restock, those who get some merchandise might hike the price \u2013 from 210 to 230, for example. And even after we manage to return to South Africa, prices there will increase for sure, and the process of sourcing goods will be very long,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

The president of the Mukhero Association says that, last week, as soon as the riots began, they were warned by their suppliers not to travel there, but some had taken the risk regardless.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the traders who were there when the riots started (and who have returned safely) we now know that, on Tuesday (July 13), four truck drivers left for South Africa. Two are in Johannesburg and another two are in Pretoria,\u201d Sudecar Novela reported.<\/p>\n

South Africa is the main supplier of onions and potatoes to the Zimpeto wholesale market. The produce comes from Pretoria and Johannesburg.<\/p>\n
