Newest Way of Selling Bread!
There is now a new marketing strategy and trend of selling bread, buns and rolls in a cart made around a three wheeler. To get the attention of the children in particular who are fond of rolls, buns and other short eats.
These sellers have now gone into stiff competition with each other by tooting a musical horn sound loudly disturbing the residents who are sleeping soundly by disturbing them. This process of marketing has now turned out to be nuisance as they loiter around houses tooting the musical horn a number of times limitlessly.
They are called ‘Thune Pan’ marketeers’. It is learnt that they have given trouble to residents in Wellawatta area to children and adults. Three of these ‘Chune Pan’
marketeers’ have been charged for disturbances they have made and when produced before the Colombo’s Additional Magistrate Nishantha Pieris had been fined Rs 6000/- each. Those who were charged are Harnis Premakan, Regan Aiya Sumaran and Kalinga Sampath.
