Teras Director of Marketing&Communications Ronald Amos said the company has already identified markets in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania and Kenya.

“It is  true we are going to five countries that our immediate plans and the countries are South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania and Kenyaand the  good news is we have already started paper work  like in South Africa we have registered a business” said Amos.

Amos said the demand for Teras which is said to be curing different diseases such as diabetes isvery high in United States of America (USA), United Kingdom (UK) and Thailand among others.

“We are also receiving orders as far as from America, UK, Thailand but this is the beginning but we want to be in these countries latest mid next year we should be up and running in these countries since now Teras herbal juices is registered with Malawi Medicine and PoisonsBoard,” he said.

He said with the demand of the product both locally and internationally the company has purchased the state-of-art machine that willincrease production from 800 bottles per day to 1500 bottles per hour.

“We were also worried about production because currently we produce half manual and half machinery but we are proud now to the company has purchased the state-of-art machine which is going to do everything including peering, capping and sealing the bottles that will make  easy for us to satisfy the demand,” said the Marketing & Communication Director.

Amos said the idea behind opening new shops in the whole African region and abroad is to support government efforts in making Malawi a producing and exporting nation.

“Government is talking about exporting we want to contribute to that because even if we go as far as America production will be done here and we will be exporting so that’s producing and exporting hence helping the availability of foreignexchange in the country,” he said.

He added that the companyis also contributing to the reduction of unemployment rate in the country.

“All these shops will be managed by Malawians we will not employ managers from other countries  because already we have employed over 50 people so you can see we are reducing unemployment rate in Malawi,” he said

Teras juice was discovered in 2013.

Exploiting vulnerable disparate diabetic patients. I am disappointed that Medicines and Poison board and Malawi Bureau of Standards are just washing Teras stealing in the name of Medicine. May be Chokazinga has shares. Where are you Dr Kampalume, Minister of Health and a Phamacy chemical expert

How authentic is this Teras that goes at k10,000. There is more marketing than scientific proof that Teras is a silver bullet cure. W need to know active ingredients in Teras npt telling us about fruits mango, papaya, bwemba, etc. This juice cannot sell in developing countries without proper lables
