Kimberley<\/p>\n
In a bid to address the increasing sale of expired products by foreign-owned shops in Galeshewe township, the Northern Cape Consumer Protection Authority has joined forces with a local non-profit organization (NPO) to conduct intensified raids and levy hefty fines. The NPO, Operation Fiela, has criticized the government for what it perceives as insufficient enforcement of existing by-laws.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Reports suggest that there are over 200 stores run by foreign nationals in Kimberley, allegedly selling expired goods. Operation Fiela, in collaboration with the Consumer Protection Authority, aims to hold individuals accountable for their actions.<\/p>\n

Local residents in Galeshewe insist that shops selling expired goods must face the consequences. Resident Shemida Mogale stated, \u201cWe should stop buying from these shops and start operating our shops. Those who can open shops, they should start opening shops, so that we can support them as the community.\u201d Source- sabc<\/p>\n
