No Fuel At Service Stations Selling In Zimbabwe Dollar - Snap Survey
A snap survey by The Chronicle has revealed that most service stations in Bulawayo which sell fuel in local currency were on Friday without fuel while it was accessible at those which sell in foreign currency.
The publication further reports that only Engen and Total had fuel which unfortunately had run out at 1 pm. Motorists remained in elongated queues hoping that there will be new deliveries.
One motorist who spoke to The Chronicle, Mr Ozias Moyo lamented over the fuel crisis saying that it has adversely affected his business. He said:
Right now, my tank is empty that is why you are seeing me pushing my vehicle while in the queue. I should have been in Maphisa at 10AM where I have business interests but I’m still here.It’s a great inconvenience… But we are left with no option but to queue as we have no access to foreign currency. In case I get the foreign currency, it would be too little to buy enough fuel.
Only recently, the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe gave fuel dealers the green light to sell the commodity in foreign currency.

This comes when there is a huge scarcity of foreign currency in the country. Foreign currency is readily available on the parallel market but the rates are very high as dealers take advantage of its unavailability on the formal market.
