"Price for imported food products is increased in the last three weeks due to the Russia-Ukraine war. Namely, cost of butter, eggs, sugar and flour is 60-70% up”, - Anano Topuridze, the head of the public relations department of the confectionery company "Mega Boss" told bm.ge.
As she pointed out, the increased imported raw materials were also reflected in the prices of their company and they had to increase the prices of their products. "In such a situation, it is impossible to maintain prices for products. As a result, in the case of "Mega Boss", the price of confectionery increased by 10-12%.
The company partially took the financial crisis and the products did not become more expensive. We believe that in the end the customer should be satisfied. If until now, we have to pay GEL 90 per 50 kg sugar, now we buy it for GEL 180-185. Correspondingly, the cost of the cake increased from 18 to 20 GEL to 22 GEL to 25 GEL”, - Topuridze said.
