Bread ration at risk
Bread prices in Lebanon are beginning to show signs of an increase, with an expected weekly rise of around 5,000 Lebanese pounds due to the hike in wheat and fuel prices. These two factors account for 22% of production costs. Bakery owners warn that imposing work bans on Syrian workers instead of regulating their residency will put additional pressure on the sector, as bakeries heavily rely on Syrian labor, which would directly raise the cost of bread. The ongoing rise in costs remains a major concern, with forecasts indicating that bread prices will increase further due to the rising costs of essential inputs.
