The first edition of Syria’s “Shawarma Index” showed that the average price of a chicken shawarma sandwich rose by 5.54% in September 2026, from 245.25 to 258.84 lira. This reduced the number of sandwiches a minimum-wage earner—whose monthly wage is 12,560 lira—could afford from 51 to 49. The index recorded the highest average price in Damascus, at 308 lira, compared with 202 lira in Hasakah—a gap of nearly 53%—even though Hasakah saw the largest monthly increase, at 14.6%. The survey was based on two rounds covering 142 shops across Syria’s 14 governorates. The index aims to track price changes, purchasing power, and differences between governorates.
