Municipalities not issuing permits to informal food traders: SA Informal Traders Alliance - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

Muller says whilst they are relieved that informal food traders will be allowed to trade during the lockdown, she’s been getting calls from members informing her that municipal offices are closed and they cannot apply for permits.

“Most reports are coming back that the doors of municipalities are closed or there’s no answer. So we are concerned and, therefore, we are writing again to the Presidency and the Ministers of COGTA so that we can then be part and parcel of the release of these permits. There has to be personal protective equipment, how far is local government going to assist in this roll out.

The owners of a fresh produce market in Polokwane say they are only admitting a limited number of informal food traders to buy goods at their markets.
