Food prices rise in Georgia

Read on the website Vestnik Kavkaza

Prices of all basic products are still rising in Georgia, Business Georgia reports. Overall price growth is tending towards 100-150% annually.

Prices for foodstuffs have increased by 50-100% in the past year, while personal hygiene products are up by 20-30%.

If this price growth continues, experts say there is a possibility of the threat of famine this winter, as ordinary customers won't be able to afford foodstuffs.
