Ukraine: processing enterprises report about sale rates decreasing

According to some representatives of processing sector, rates of finished commodity sales decreased. As specialists reported, this fact was caused by sale reduction in the retail chains due to decrease of purchasing capacity. As a result, processors which needed circulating assets in order to repay current credits did not exclude price adjustments towards decreasing.

At the same time tinned food factories which did not need circulating assets adjusted selling prices towards increasing due to fluctuation of currency exchange courses and price increasing for package and packaging.
