He says, ?There is a very big demand for all types of containers. We are selling everyday. I myself am running short ads. It's becoming expensive to find the Chigubu's. Even at the market the prices are changing all the time. But it's a good business. At least I am not unemployed. I can make some money because I am selling to the people in the suburbs so I get good prices.?
Traveling around Harare it?s hard not to see someone carrying either a two, five or 20 liter container. Also plastic buckets are becoming increasingly popular. Residents say they prefer storing food supplies -- such as maize meal, rice, sugar and flour ? in buckets, making the Chigubu concept even more useful.
