So when your cost of doing business/break even point is 20-21% for the wholesalers...you think forcing them to sell at 15% is feasible? Good luck with that.
Not a single 'consultation with stake holders', in either wholesale, retail or pharmacies...yet they tell you all that bald face lie that 'after consulting with stakeholders'.. BS...pure rubbish in a political ploy to try to make said stakeholders appear like the bad guys when they get up in arms and protest the move. Shameless. They have yet to give any of those groups ANY official paperwork on the issue, yet they wanted it to be ready for action this coming Monday? Do they not think these things through? I guess with the whole Back to School VAT holiday debacle, apparently not!!
That's about the long and short of it. Particularly with the fresh fruit and veg and chilled/frozen meats, 15% just isn't even worth the effort or risk with spoilage and date issues.
This is just governments way to put a third party in between them and the end user, so that when the system goes does, which it does on a regular basis, you have a guessing game as to whose software has failed and everyone can start pointing fingers at each other and accomplish nothing.
