The owners of the Khora Foods business saw the need and developed strategies to help their customers get less expensive commodities because Lesotho has been experiencing long-term, severe price increases on meal meals and bread flour.

The store sells necessities including maize meals, bread flour, dog and poultry food, as well as any products with the Coca-Cola brand, according to Khora Foods’ interview with Ts’epang Matsepe, the store manager.He revealed that the store was founded on March 17 of this year, is situated at Han’elese (checkpoint), and is owned by two partners. Customers can purchase things from the store for less money, and they can also have them delivered to them anywhere in Lesotho.

“When Khora came about, we did a proper analysis of what was a major need for Basotho and came to the conclusion to meet them halfway with selling what they use daily and need, but we also had to think and come up with strategies to make sure our clients were met halfway, hence the lower prices and delivery services.” He said.

He continued by saying that they also sell their products to small NGOs, individuals, and wholesalers. However, they also suggest that villagers band together and purchase at least 50 of our goods in order to qualify for a wholesaler discount and free delivery because doing so saves them money. “We typically give our products to small NGOs for them to sell, and once they do, they get a certain amount, which we also do, to help our economy.” He declared


The proclaimed business man claimed that they had four employees and plan to add more as the business expands and new branches open, helping to lower unemployment and provide jobs for young Basotho people. “We hired as few as those who completed grade 12, as we were aware of the low jobless rate and the significant drug epidemic affecting our kids. To balance things out, we do make sure to recruit everyone, even those without credentials, for a weekly piece job. We only recruit men because our work demands a lot of muscle, and the majority of women who have been hired in the past have either been unable to complete the job or have quit halfway through, but we still need to build positions on which men may work. However, we do take care to hire everyone on a piece-rate basis, regardless of qualifications, in order to maintain balance. We exclusively hire men because our work takes a lot of muscle, and the majority of women hired in the past were unable to complete their tasks or quite midway through; nonetheless, we still need to establish roles for which both sexes are eligible for employment.
