South Africa's consumer food inflation slightly slowed to 8,0% in September 2023 from 8,2% in the previous month. The product prices underpinning this deceleration are mainly bread and cereals; oils and fats; sugar, sweets and desserts; and vegetables. Our view of the path forward remains unchanged from what we have consistently communicated over the past few months.

Suid Afrika - Byna 40 000 werksgeleenthede in die tabakbedryf het reeds van 2019 tot 2022 verlore gegaan, hoofsaaklik weens die vinnige groei van die onwettige sektor, wat nou 63% van sigaretverkope uitmaak. Volgens die Oxford Economics-navorsing het onwettige sigaretverkope verlede jaar alleen meer as R20 miljard van die nasionale fiskus afgerokkel, en R72,2 miljard van 2020 tot 2022.

South Africans might have to grow their own mushrooms as the country is believed to be grappling with a shortage of fresh mushrooms. This shortage is leaving chefs, food enthusiasts, and estaurants scrambling to find alternatives to this popular ingredient. Debonairs have taken to using canned mushrooms instead of fresh mushrooms due to the shortage. The country has had several mushroom shortages in the past. In April, the mushroom shortage was caused by the shutting down of private mushroom farms and Denny's operations in Durban having been destroyed by a fire in September last year. As it stands, there are only about 18 mushroom farms left in the country. The shortage can also be largely attributed to none other than load shedding. 

Low price supermarket group Shoprite, has offered government tips on how to reduce food insecurity in the country. The retailer marked Marked World Food day on Monday with the launch of their Food Index, which revealed that almost half of the countries population will face food insecurity in 2025. Shoprite already does its part in fighting hunger by subsidising one million R5 bread loaves per week including selling R5 meals.  The retail group says the government can make two immediate tangible steps to reduce food insecurity: Exempt food retailers from the Road Accident Fund levy on diesel used for generators, and Consider zero VAT on certain key commodities to further prioritise relief for citizens. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation(FAO) describes food insecurity as the lack of consistent access to food. People and households who have gone a day without food once or a few times a year have food insecurity.

Half of South Africa’s population will be food insecure by 2025, with 48.96% of the population potentially not having enough to eat. Today, on World Food Day, 1 in 5 of the country’s households do not know where their next meal will come from. According to retail group Shoprite’s Food Index, which tries to understand food security in South Africa better, 70% of children are born into poverty in the country. By age five, 1 in 4 suffers from stunted cognitive and physical development due to malnutrition. The index uses data on food insecurity from the World Data Lab.

As jy nie na jou liggaam en gesondheid omsien nie, dit nie instand hou nie- verkeerde ongesonde kos eet en drink wat jy wil- rook en drankmisbruik- dwelms gebruik- nie slaap nie- nie oefening doen nie- oorgewig is - onverantwoordelik is oor jou gesondheid, denke en gedrag - is jy SELFSUGTIG  teenoor die mense wat lief is vir jou waarmee jy saamleef en bly. Daar is niks so vervullend as om 'n gesonde Pappa en Mamma te he en daarmee saam 'n gesonde Oupa en Ouma nie. Dit is wat waarde toevoeg tot jou menswees. Net so wil ouers ook sien dat hulle kinders gesond oud word.  READ MORE
