Prices of bread & biscuit

Md. Ashraf Hossain, Central Bashabo, Dhaka
A few months back price of wheat rose sharply in international as well as local markets. We experienced the same phenomenon in case of sugar and edible oil. These are the basic ingredients of making bread and biscuit. In Bangladesh, both bread and biscuit prices went very high instantly. But in the last couple of months prices of all the basic ingredients of bread and biscuit have been going down continuously. But in the local market the prices of bread and biscuits have not been showing any downward change, which is surprising. The producers are not reducing those prices. I urge the producers of bread and biscuits to reduce prices of their commodities according to the fall in the prices of raw materials.
