NewZimbabwe reports that retailers are charging different prices depending on the price they buy forex for in order to procure Delta Beverages products. Delta Beverages is by far the largest manufacturer and distributor of beer in Zimbabwe.
One retailer told NewZimbabwe:
We are now buying beer from Delta using a black market rate of RTGS$1 to US$4, 25. In order for me to make profit, I am now selling a 750 ml bottle of green beers for RTGS$7. I am sourcing the forex from the black market where the rates are very low here in Bulawayo.
