I remember my grand pa telling me how he will sell the mbuzi hide for like 15bob or 20 bob and I was thinking...what? why would anyone bother to lift a finger for such prices. Sijui bei imefika wapi these days but in today's economy you need to make it worth my while to come can drop hide at your place. Ama we just get some brokers/middle men who zunguka during weekends and christmas to pick all the smelly things and ship them to the tannery in the same way we have people who pickup milk.

Those brokers could be the ones buying at 15/-. Come to think of it that could be a very good business "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.
