The Consumer Affairs Division (CAD) of the Ministry of Trade says they are disappointed that some retailers have already raised the price of some brands of flour although the private producer has announced that the increase will take effect on Monday (June 27th).
In a press release issued this afternoon, the Ministry pleaded with all retailers of flour to be fair and reasonable in their mark-ups and to keep citizens in mind as well all navigate these trying times.
CAD says they will "closely monitor the cost of flour and will publish the relevant prices in various supermarkets throughout the country.
