Regional Markets. The Settling Parties agree to the following terms regarding regional markets. The terms in this section expressly survive the conclusion of Proceeding No. 20A-0528E as set forth below.
Regional Markets. South Africa There is no milling of pigeon peas in South Africa, thus all tur xxxx is imported ready or near-ready for retail distribution. Supplies arrive mainly by truck from Malawi. Only a handful of companies import tur xxxx, and most of them are part of a closely-knit community that is sometimes difficult to penetrate. The price paid for tur xxxx in South Africa is slightly lower than that paid in the UK or US, but the lower shipping cost could result in a higher price for Sagar. Almost all ships that call at the Nacala subsequently call at Durban, thus providing easy access to the South African market. The transport cost for Sagar compared to transport over land from Malawi should be investigated further.
Regional Markets. Regional markets are located in the centre of the region or in larger district capitals. These markets are often the largest markets available to the consumers. The producers may come to the markets to sell their products but most often the trade is run by professional traders who collect the products from the local farmers (either at the farm gate or at the market) and who come to the market every day of the week. Traders in regional markets commonly collect goods from a large geographic area including other regional markets, local small- and large- scale producers, as well as collection points in surplus areas (Xxxxxx, 2005).
