Farouk explained that the ministry’s plans take into account
all cost elements and production inputs for manufacturing subsidized bread.
This includes the price of diesel within the cost structure, in light of the
new petroleum product prices.
He added that the state will continue to cover the
difference in production costs and reimburse bakery owners. This ensures the
continued distribution of subsidized bread to citizens through ration cards at
the set price, without any additional burden on the public.
The confirmation reflects the Ministry of Supply and
Internal Trade’s commitment to maintaining the stability of the supply system.
It also guarantees the regular provision of subsidized bread to citizens across
all governorates.
