Hotels Plead With Govt To Review Lockdown As Occupancy Drops To Zero

By Alois Vinga THE hospitality sector has pleaded with the government to review the current strict Covid-19 lockdown restrictions as room occupancy levels hit zero as the industry faces huge financial losses. Speaking to NewZimbabwe.com Saturday, Hospitality Association of Zimbabwe (HAZ) president, Clive Chinwada bemoaned the low business levels which have pushed the sector to the brink of collapse. “Occupancies have plummeted in the last three weeks to zero percent in many destinations. There is very little activity taking place,” he said. “We have been dealing with the pandemic for over a year now. In that year, we have had at least four lockdowns including the current lockdown. It is, therefore, reasonable to suggest that we cannot continue to have lockdowns ad infinitum.”
