A market vendor in North Guadalcanal Miss Georgina Misu is concerned over the increasing cost of reef fish at Honiara Central Market.
North Guadalcanal stringer Daddley Gani reports Miss Misu as saying this happens as certain individuals in Honiara buy the fish in bulk and resale them at higher prices.
“They’ve the fish for 14 dollars per pound and then resell them to market vendors and the Honiara public for 18 dollars per pound. Mrs Misu said this is daylight robbery because the middle man sellers makes a four dollars profit per pound at no cost or expense at all, only the reef fish buyers are victimised.”
