At least 250 traders have applied for import licences to bring in maize under the duty-free window as they seek to cash in on the waiver issued by the government.

The document seen by the Business Daily shows that the application to the Ministry of Agriculture was made between December 16-30, even as just a handful of millers requested to bring in the produce.
