ISLAMABAD: The Utility Stores Corporation (USC) during the launch of Ramadan Relief Package on Monday reduced the prices of more than 450 items by up to 10 per cent.
Earlier in the month, the USC reduced the prices of more than 700 items. However, the prices of key edible items including sugar, gram flour, etc would be reduced just ahead of Ramadan.
USC Spokesman Wajid Ali Khan said the prices of 450 items were reduced after negotiations with suppliers. The new prices have been implemented with immediate effect and will continue up to the end of Ramadan, he added.
The spokesman said that the price reduction more than a month ahead of Ramazan will help consumers to plan their kitchen budget in advance.
