Irani Dates Price Increased Before Ramadan

The cost of Iranian dates has risen sharply in the wholesale market just before Ramadan, causing concern among consumers and traders.

Details indicate a significant increase of 4,000 rupees per maund, climbing from 12,000 to 16,000 rupees. This surge is attributed to a shortage of dates compounded by storage issues. Traders, anticipating increased demand from the 15th of Sha’ban to the 15th of Ramadan, have reportedly filled cold storage, further restricting date availability.
