Port Harcourt - Post Report Question and Answers
How would you describe the availability and cost of groceries and household supplies relative to your home country?
Very sparse. Most goods are brought in via air freight. When items arrive, they are sold almost immediately and the cost is higher than in the UK and Holland, but then again you might expect it to be. Good South African wine is available at reasonable cost (approx £4 per bottle) and some French wine too. Goods such as Nappies, washing powders, etc., are extortionate and we avoid having to purchase these as much as possible. - Apr 2006
