We are given the first cost estimates of CIF (Cost/Value + Insurance + Freight) of about $8,500 and customs duty, taxes, clearing and handling charges in Maputo of about $2,800; and a rough estimate of forwarding costs from Maputo to Beira, handling, trucking to Dondo and offloading estimate of $1,800.
Gordon emails from Dondo (Beira) after speaking with Joao Wenningkamp Director of the Dondo Iris Center about his thoughts on having the bicycles arrive there. Joao said there is a "very great need" for bikes in central Mozambique, and he would love to have vocational training for some of the youth to learn how to maintain and repair the bicycles. However, he needs to hear more about Ron's vision and strategy.
