Fuel Supply Improves In Most Parts Of The Country - Report

Fuel supply improved yesterday in most parts of the country as garages received fuel and some were promised supplies, The Chronicle reports.

According to the publication, these towns and cities received fuel yesterday:

In Harare service stations started the day dry, with the minority that had received fuel over the last few days sold out, but deliveries were being made during the day and motorists were queuing from early morning at those stations that were expecting a delivery. Most DFI service stations around the city had fuel throughout the day.

In Matabeleland South some motorists in Plumtree were crossing the border into Botswana to get supplies for resale in the town at a significant mark-up. In Gwanda two of the four services stations had fuel while in Beitbridge more than half of the 10 service stations received limited supplies

In Mutare Total, Zuva and Petrotrade service stations received fuel on Thursday and yesterday but deliveries were quickly sold out as demand was very high following the recent tight supplies.
