Swirl around fruits and vegetables

 

Food prices in Tunisia have evolved sharply, so prices for fruit and vegetables have increased by 200% between 2016 and 2017. According to some professionals, it is not a lack of production that would be the reason but rather the inefficiency of distribution channels. Negotiations began with the public authorities.

 

 

 

At the heart of the debates, a law that dates back 29 years and that sets the profit margin of traders. A revision of the law is required as well as better control of supply and distribution channels, from production to market stalls.

 

 

 

The general strike of Fruit & Vegetable traders, scheduled from 11 to 13 April, has just been canceled.
