According to Eddy Alcántara, the Executive Director of the National Institute for the Protection of Consumer Rights (Pro Consumidor) bananas and other agricultural products have seen substantial reductions in recent days. A survey carried out by Pro Consumidor - in different markets - confirmed that prices are beginning to stabilize in favor of consumers. The aforementioned survey was carried out in the New Market on Duarte Avenue, as well as in the market of Villa Consuelo, San Cristóbal, San Pedro de Macorís and other towns.
“The reduction in the price of plantains, bananas and other products confirms what we had predicted, that the trend was that the prices of these items that are so important for the basic family basket would stabilize by the end of this month of January, as it has happened, that the fluctuation is downwards,” Alcántara highlighted.
