Business ramps up efforts for government help

14

BUSINESS is cranking up its push for another stimulus package to help commerce and industry recover from the residual effects of Covid-19 and economic strife.
Speaking to The Financial Gazette this week, business leaders said the issue of a fresh stimulus package had become more urgent in light of the dire economic challenges experienced over the past few months.
This comes after the Confederation of Zimbabwe Industries (CZI) revealed that it will unveil a US$300 million facility of its own at its annual congress in Harare next week, to support some of the capital requirements of manufacturers — a figure that experts say falls well short of the required funding by producers.
