*Grain Millers Say Mealie Meal Price Hike Is Inevitable* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?ge The Grain Millers Association of Zimbabwe (GMAZ), said that its members are struggling to access foreign currency on the interbank market forcing then to rely on the black market. GMAZ general manager Lynette Veremu said that because of these developments, coupled with the government’s decision to increase wheat and maize producer prices, there will be a price hike for grain products.

Our monitoring teams will be in the field to promote adherence. Veremu added that locally-produced wheat has been exhausted, meaning that millers are importing all the wheat required. She called upon the government to consult widely with stakeholders before announcing new policies to avoid blaming business for price increases. *More: NewZimbabwe* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
