The Ethiopian Game Department wants to procure some CITES Marking tags for leopard skins. In it's usual far thinking, The CITES Secretariat has only sanctioned one manufacterer in the entire world to manufacture these tags.

Telegraphic transfers of the hughe sum needed for the purchase of 20 of these tags ($19.60 USD) is not do-able as those transfers are difficult to trace within the Zimbabwe banking system (go figure!)
Does anyone on the forum know any agent in Harare that might facilitate this purchase and DHL the tags to Ethiopia? Or to me for that matter and I could send them on. Guess it would have to be someone with ties outside of Zim'. so the money could be wired there. An alternative is to courrier a bank draft but I can see where soon they would have several hundred dollars in $20 worth of tags.

Rich,

If you would like to send me an e-mail (not a PM) telling me where they have to be sent to and full details of the contact on the manufacturing plant I'll see what I can do.....I do have a few contacts in Zim and live fairly close by and am happy to try to do something.......the bad news is that I leave for Tanzania in 2 weeks time.

Or Give Leanne at taxidermy enterprises (harare office) a ring. They deal with transfers and leopard tags all the time.
