The Minister of Sea, Inland Waters and Fisheries, Lídia Cardoso, this Wednesday, May 3, challenged the authorities of the fishery sector, in Maputo province, to provide direct assistance to retailers of various fish as a way to broaden their commercial base.
According to Lídia Cardoso, it is important that the retailers have access to the several types of market at national level for their development.
Speaking during a visit to a Fishing and Livestock Fair, the governor explained that the sector, at the provincial level, can create several channels that allow the retailers to sell the fish in big hotels, restaurants or even to export.
