Turnall bemoans lockdown restrictions

ZIMBABWE Stock Exchange-listed Turnall Holdings says the distribution of its products has been hampered by movement restrictions as a result of the lockdown imposed by government to stem the spread of coronavirus.

“While the company is allowed to trade under the partial lockdown regulations, the selling and distribution of our products have been curtailed by the restriction of movement and restrictions on purchasing non-essential products,” said Turnall chairperson Rita Likukuma in the company’s first quarter trading update.

The group has also said raw materials and spares imports from Europe, were severely affected by the pandemic.
