"Due to market fluctuations, cucumbers, which were selling for 85 lira yesterday, began at 109 lira this morning. By noon, the price had climbed to 120 lira. I doubt there’s any other country that enjoys such a steep price increase during the holidays," the vendor stated, as reported by Kibris Postasi.
Earlier, butchers and dairy producers in Northern Cyprus decided to reduce their prices for the duration of the holy month of Ramadan. After the Milk Producers Association (SÜİB) announced a 10% price cut on milk and dairy products, the Butchers’ Association followed suit with a similar decision.
