Power outages in Ukraine increase the prices of important products

The increase in prices for products in Ukraine has become the main topic for every citizen. Food products make up more than 40% of the consumer basket, which is reflected in inflation index calculations.

In June, the situation may suddenly change. While food has kept inflation under control in recent months, a 64% increase in the cost of electricity and regular blackouts have dealt a major blow to the economy, particularly food production.

It is predicted that this situation may last for a considerable time. In the next two years, Ukraine may face an energy deficit, which will lead to an increase in the price of products due to high costs of alternative energy sources.

Food companies are already feeling the effects. In particular, bread producers are anticipating a 25-30% increase in prices, and poultry farms are facing problems due to power outages, which could lead to disruptions in feed production and reduced meat production.

In the restaurant business, although there is a readiness for challenges, consumer prices may also increase due to the complexity of logistics and increased energy costs.

Uncertainty about the future development of the situation remains high, but experts predict a further increase in food prices due to difficult energy conditions and inflationary pressure.
