DAMBUDZO CHIBWE:Zimbabwe’s economic landscape is tough, but one trend is giving people hope. Manufacturers are now packaging essentials like cooking oil, bread, and sugar in small quantities, known as “tsaona”.

It’s a game-changer for low-income households who can’t afford to buy in the conventional retail standard quantities. And it’s not just informal traders who are cashing in – big retailers are getting in on the action too. They’re realizing that selling smaller packs can be a lucrative business, especially for customers using mobile money.

By adapting to the economic reality, businesses are ensuring that basic goods remain within reach of ordinary people.hashtagZimbabweEconomy
