List of 1 822 companies that got forex from the Zimbabwe auction between June 2020 and September 2021

The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe today released the list of 1 822 companies that obtained foreign currency from the auction since it was launched on 23 June 2020 to the end of September this year.

The companies were allotted a total of US$1.86 million.

  3. United Refineries              US$21.8 million
