“The latest ban of two weeks that has been imposed follows 19 weeks of revenue loss over the past 15 months, which has had a devastating effect on the wine and tourism sector that employs more than 269,000 people,” said Rico Basson, Vinpro MD.

“A large number of our wine producers and wineries are small. More than 80% of the 529 wineries are small and medium enterprises and are reliant on direct sales to customers.”

“Unfortunately representations in respect of this risk-adjusted approach were not taken into account and a blanket ban was yet again announced.” “A more flexible, nimble approach is needed, based on credible empirical data, where the provincial executive should be empowered to deal with the retail sale of liquor for the rest of the pandemic, as provincial authorities are normally responsible for regulating the sale of liquor and in charge of healthcare and provincial hospitals. They are, therefore, better equipped to manage the delicate balance between lives and livelihoods.
