Those customs issues are freaking up alot of businesses. When usually you could order something on monday and have it for your customer by friday....now its 3 to 4 weeks or more waiting time.
So instantly you lose that customer.
Imo it has improved a little but still very bad. Bout 2 - 3 weeks now as opposed to 1 month+. Don't know if / when we'll return to 1 week or less times but yeah it's difficult for anyone / small business importing goods in a timely manner.SuperiorMan wrote:Phone Surgeon wrote:Customs must be start to jam them.

No buffet style: Supermarkets to sell pre-packed, cooked food only
DARLISA GHOURALAL CREATED : 6 MAY 2021
The sale of pre-packaged cooked food at supermarkets is allowed – as long as the public health guidelines are adhered to.
The assurance comes from President of the Supermarket Association of Trinidad and Tobago (SATT) Rajiv Diptee, following correspondence from Police Commissioner Gary Griffith clarifying the sale of cooked food at supermarkets.
Confusion set in after police earlier this week shut down the sale of food at a Barataria grocery, causing members of the public to question whether the sale of meals at these establishments was prohibited as restaurants remain closed.
But, Diptee said the Commissioner has advised that the preparation and sale of food is limited to pre-packaged food put out for sale only.
The SATT President explained: “The customisation of meals across a service counter where customers can enjoy a selection of food is prohibited as the regulations identify such food outlets as restaurant facilities.”
“The preparation and sale of food will continue at stores once they continue to follow the regulations to ensure compliance,” he added.
Principal Medical Officer Maryam Abdool-Richards at yesterday’s virtual media briefing hosted by the Ministry of Health also confirmed that the sale of these goods through groceries/supermarkets, bakeries and vegetable stalls aren’t prohibited under the current regulations.
It’s well documented, however, that police can shut down such operations for the day in the instance of gatherings in breach of the regulations at these establishments.
Massy Stores is one of the many groceries that offers ready to go meals, and has assured that the sale of their pre-packaged food will continue.
Assistant Vice President Marketing Candace Ali told Loop News that there’s been a higher demand for their meals.
Ali assured that there’s no crowding taking place and the supermarket follows food safety rules with all of the packaged meals put out on warmers.
“They’re hot and ready to go. Our pre-packaged lunches, fried chicken and rotisserie chicken are among our top sellers at the moment. In some instances, the food is sold out before lunch time as many people aren’t able to always pack a meal with them when they go out to work.”
“So, these meals will continue to be sold at our supermarkets, in compliance with the public health guidelines. It’s not a self-serve system like a buffet style, but pre-packaged lunches set out on warmers for customers to choose from.”
She added there have been no issues with police cautioning the supermarkets about crowding and customers remain compliant with the established guidelines which are reinforced by staff when people enter the stores.
“Handwashing, directional signs, reminders from staff, everything is in place to ensure that operations continue safely,” Ali said. https://www.looptt.com/content/no-buffe ... -food-only?

Massy always seeks the best interest for their customers and the service is excellent.

Yes my brother - Callaloo and Fried Pollo is good.
My Vene family however prefer to make their own EVERY Sunday .
"Callolo" was actually first made in Venezuela .
Trinidad had Spanish influence since 1895 and Arawak and Carib used to make it with the Vene Indians.
So Venes are really original Trinidadians.
Callaloo is a Vene dish .
Google it

Try again sellout.Calaloo is African.Spanish didn't know about dasheen bush until they reach Africa.But white is right I supposeHold that in the meantime , Wikipedia"Since the leaf vegetable used in some regions may be locally called "callaloo" or "callaloo bush" "dasheen Leaves", some confusion can arise among the vegetables and with the dish itself. This, as is the case with many other Caribbean dishes, is a remnant of West African cuisine.[1
