Know Your Consumer Rights. #WCRD2026 #WorldConsumerRightsDay

The Consumer Council of Zimbabwe (CCZ) yesterday held a Consumer Community Engagement in Zaka District at Chivamba and Mushungwa Business Centres in commemoration of World Consumer Rights Day.

Consumers everywhere have the right to safe, non-hazardous products. So why is this still not the reality? #WCRD2026, we unite to demand stronger #productsafety laws, greater transparency, & accountability across supply chains. Upholding our rights is a global responsibility.

Know your rights. Demand safe products. Act when businesses fall short. #WorldConsumerRightsDay #WCRD2026 @Consumers_Int
