Fixing prices in a free market environment is kind of stupid. Either the market price is below the fixed price and you are out of business (as is the case now) or once the market price moves above the fixed price, it will be the vendors that will empty the ADMARC depots (and not the average poor Malawian) to sell it at a premium. In both cases, ADMARC will not achieve its purpose. Let free market rules apply and with this, corporations making ill decisions (why and to whom did ADMARC pay 12500 MK when the actual market price was… Read more »

the thing here is that admarc employees are ripping us they adjusted the scales in their markets. buy 10kgs of maize and reweigh the package you will be amazed that the new reading will be 7 kgs when you actually bought 10kgs

Anthu ambiri akumayiwerengera patali masiku ano, they are keeping enough maize to take them through to next harvest season, so Admarc musova how to repay the loan although we know you and your DPP government does not care because you will use our money you get in the name of PAYE and other taxes too numerous to mention which your government imposed on almost everything we buy from markets while you are enjoying free tax benefits.

Actually this is not a caring government. They just wanted to make the maize available but not accessible by the ordinary.

Dr. Chakwela told the government to reverse the hiked maize price right from the start but the rude DPP government refused and always say Chakwera is power hungry………boma losafuna kulangizidwa ngati ili sitinalione ……. abwana a ku Admarc musova………………………………………

“Lowering price does not make business sense” So setting an exorbitant price which make people shun the market is ‘business sense’. Actually is happening because the hunger situation has been exaggerated. In a critical hunger situation vendor buy from ADMARC and sell to people at higher prices. Believe me even if ADMARC was to reduce the price of maize to K10,000/bag, vendors will reduce to K9000/bag. Why? Musova!!!!!!
