Hwange Local Board Ward 6 Councillor Mlungisi Zhanero has welcomed the signing of lease agreements and allocation of bays to vendors at the newly established vegetable market stalls at Empumalanga's DRC Shopping Centre, describing the development as a major step towards improving orderliness and cleanliness within the trading area. Councillor Zhanero said the formal allocation of trading spaces will help create a well-organised marketplace, enhance hygiene standards, and provide vendors with a secure and conducive environment to conduct their businesses. He added that the initiative reflects Hwange Local Board's commitment to supporting small-scale traders while improving service delivery and the overall appearance of the shopping centre. The new market stalls are expected to bring convenience to both vendors and customers, promote compliance with local regulations, and contribute to the growth of the local economy through structured and sustainable informal trading. #HwangeLocalBoard #EmpumalangaDRC #MarketDevelopment #SupportingVendors #CleanEnvironment #LocalEconomicGrowth #ServiceDelivery #BuildingHwangeTogether

♻️ FROM THE MARATHON TO A CLEANER, GREENER BEITBRIDGE! ♻️ ​Riding high on the incredible success of the recent Beitbridge Mayor’s Half Marathon, the Municipality of Beitbridge is keeping that winning momentum going this time, by launching an exciting new Waste Segregation Initiative to completely transform how we handle waste in our beautiful town. ​To kickstart the campaign, our Environmental Health section just conducted a hands-on training session for municipal employees at the main office. We have officially introduced a new, color-coded bin system at our headquarters. ​Here is your quick guide to the new colors: 🟨 Yellow ➔ Cans 🟥 Red ➔ Glass 🟩 Green ➔ Food Waste 🟦 Blue ➔ Plastic Waste ⬛ Black ➔ General Waste ​During the training, our team also deep-dived into the core 4 Rs of Waste Management: ❌ REFUSE what we don’t need, 📉 REDUCE what we use, 🔄 RE-USE what we can, and ♻️ RECYCLE the rest ​ We aren't stopping at the main office! We are actively preparing to roll these specialized sorting bins out across the entire town, moving next to: 🔹 Business Centers & Industrial Areas 🔹 Institutions (Schools & Churches) 🔹 Gated Communities 🔹 Residential Neighborhoods ​To make sure your sorting efforts pay off, the Municipality will be establishing designated waste sorting sites for recycling spread throughout Beitbridge town. Furthermore, by the end of the year, we will be conducting a Waste Characterization Survey to analyze our local waste patterns and continuously sharpen our long-term environmental strategy. ​A clean environment starts with the choices we make every day. Let’s carry the team spirit of the Mayor's Marathon into making Beitbridge a model sustainable town. ​#BeitbridgeMunicipality #GoGreenBeitbridge #WasteSegregation #ReduceReuseRecycle #CleanEnvironment #SustainableBeitbridge
