Representatives of trade and food producers announced that they bear the greatest costs, challenges and risks in order to maintain a stable market supply, but also to understand citizens who would like to have more affordable prices in unprofitable retail chains.

“We understand the citizens who would like to have more affordable prices in unprofitable retail chains, just as we also understand the job of the media to investigate and report in the public interest”, representatives of trade and food producers announced on Monday at a meeting with the president of the Chamber of Commerce (PKCG) Nina Drakić.

However, as they stated, the greatest costs, challenges and risks are borne by them, as trade chains and food producers, in order to maintain a stable market supply of all necessary products, especially during the summer tourist season.

As announced by the PKCG, they reminded that they are trying to be ready for any kind of crisis circumstances, such as have occurred and continue in the last three years.

At the meeting, it was stated that the greatest public interest is, however, a stable market supply, which, for the trade chains themselves in a small country like Montenegro, has become very challenging and expensive.

“The reasons for high prices are numerous, and the primary one is that Montenegro still does not have sufficient production of its food and numerous other consumer products, and as such, it is import-oriented,” the announcement states.

Another big reason is the fact of a small market, for which the same import conditions do not apply as for large countries, which have large own production and large trades, so imported products are offered to them under incomparably better conditions.

When we add to this the disruptions in the market, caused by the pandemic, which are still being felt, and then the war in Ukraine, Europe’s largest grain producer, and global inflation, it can be understood that prices are not dictated only by trade chains, but also by business conditions and the circumstances in which we are located.
