KARACHI: Despite Sindh Food Department’s fixed flour retail price of Rs26.50 per kilo, it is being sold across the province at Rs36/38 per kilo.
Flourmills Association and the provincial food department a few days ago in a meeting had enhanced the ex-mill rate by Rs3 per kilo for stabilizing the price of flour in the city, while it was decided that the retailers would be selling flour at Rs26.50, but this arrangement has come to a total failure, as the consumers are still being forced by the shopkeepers to buy flour at Rs36/38 per kilo. On the other hand, following utility stores’ enhancement in the price of flour by Rs3/4 per kilo, flourmills have also raised their flour price by Rs3, piling miseries on the consumers.
