Despite an international market identified by the Malawi Investment and Trade Centre (MITC) Malawi falls short of supply, making it lose out on a market worth K885 billion.

MITC director of investment, promotion and facilitation Joshua Nthakomwa said in Mzuzu on Friday that producers are failing to meet the demand despite the one-stop trade and investment centre’s initiative to secure markets through various forums.

Nthakomwa bemoaned inconsistent supply by farmers, who only give a once-off supply, which is contrary to the market’s constant demand.
