Vegetables Rot as Anti-Foreigner Protests Hit South African Business

A South African businessman has warned that ongoing “Foreigners Must Go” protests are hurting his sales. In a video shared online, he walks through his store to show crates of bananas, oranges and other produce going bad. He explains that many of the customers who normally buy his vegetables have been told to leave the country. With fewer buyers, perishable goods are spoiling on the shelves before they can be sold. The clip highlights the ripple effects of xenophobic demonstrations on everyday traders and the food supply chain in South Africa, where many foreign entrepreneurs run small businesses.
