It is noted that the corresponding notification has already been sent to the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

It is reported that this situation was caused by the request of manufacturers to increase the selling prices for products by 10%.

Chairman of the Presidium of AKORT Sergei Belyakov said that due to the seasonal factor and the massive spread of bird flu, the volume of products on the market has decreased, and the internal costs of poultry farmers are increasing due to an increase in the cost of the feed base and a significant reduction in livestock.

The press service of the Ministry of Agriculture said they did not have information about the increase in selling prices from the main suppliers of poultry products, but they recognized the possibility of some increase in selling prices in the short term.

Earlier, the newspaper "Kommersant", citing representatives of retailers, reported that meat processors turned to retail chains with a request to increase purchase prices for finished products by 10-15%, including sausages and sausages.
