South Africans have criticised Lorna Maseko after she ranted about local consumers not buying her merchandise, which includes a range of cookware.

The TV personality, who is also a professional dancer and chef, has come under fire after she questioned why “my people” did not support her business endevours.

 

 

LORNA MASEKO RANTS ABOUT SA CONSUMERS
In a TikTok posted over the weekend, Lorna Maseko revealed that she had to “beg” South Africans to support her.

She said: “I don’t understand. Usually, I sell out my cookware line in America after an hour or two hours. Literally sell hundreds of these products.

“In South Africa, my sauces…I must beg. That doesn’t make sense to me. How is that even possible? These are my people.

“But Americans – where I am a foreigner – people love it. Make it make sense”.

According to her website, Lorna Maseko’s cooking sauces and spices under her “Pinch of Salt” range from R120 to R350.

Her cookware line – available through US retailer HSN – ranges between R700 and R1 100.

ENTITLED?
Lorna Maseko ended her video by asking her followers to “help me help you” in offering solutions.

However, the alleged romantic partner and baby mama of Floyd Shivambu – was met with claims from confused South Africans.

@zeestacks_: “To be fair, we didnt even know you have a cookware line”.

@mmangwaya: “Invest in marketing? Or stick to your already established market in the US.”

@onkgopotse_p: “Are we even the target market?”

Others were not impressed by her approach to the issue…

@itts.lulu_: “I have to beg is so wild’. How is anybody going to support that?”

@nairs68: “Sense of entitlement!”

@nobuhlesk: “You don’t even engage in the comments. What do you want us to do?”
