Business owners in the Nelson Mandela Bay area in the Eastern Cape say are concerned about the latest round of stage six rolling blackouts.Business owners in the city say they are worried about increased losses due to extended downtime.“Regardless of what stage we are on it has always been an issue. Most of these restaurants run big heavy equipment. With the generators it costs [a lot] to maintain those throughout the day.
Nelson Mandela Bay Tourism chairperson, Andrew Stuart, is confident of a successful holiday season, despite the rolling blackouts. “With load shedding as it is quite high everyone coming from a local destination would understand it. Our international guests might find it a bit challenging however because we have been under load shedding for so long most of our tourism operators have made back up plans so I don’t think load shedding is going to have any real effect on the visitor.”
