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.
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.
