&lt;p&gt;May I introduce you to Bemugi and his brother Jamnadas, who can  assist with the procurement support in Maputo&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As mentioned they have been providing this service for a while to the Machangulo Beach Lodge and also on behalf of various home owners at Machangulo Estate on the peninsula.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is a summary of the way they work:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1.       Attached is a list of items they can buy for you. You will need to fill in the volumes and supply the buying list at least 3 weeks before the trip.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2.       Jamnadas will provide a costing on the list for your approval. You can then edit the list if you wish to change and provide a final list.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3.       Funds will need to be transferred to them to go ahead with the shopping on the day before your arrival ( electronic transfer)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4.       The goods can be delivered to your charter boat, which avoids the transport fee of a separate dhow of Mets 3,500 (to be confirmed), if required.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5.       The service carries a 20% handling fee on the cost of the goods bought. This will save you a lot of time and take care of the bulk of your requirements in advance.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6.       If you require it, the refrigerated salads, diary, fresh and frozen goods will be transported in cooler boxes on the boat/dhow and will be returned to Bemugi after unpacking at the house.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
