The Cabinet Sub-Committee\u00a0appointed to work in collaboration with the Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Consumer\u00a0Affairs, on the impact of the price increases announced by Caribbean Agro Industries,\u00a0\u00a0will engage with stakeholders in the Poultry Industry as the next step.<\/p>\n

The concern is specifically based on the\u00a0 additional hardship the increases can cause for Grenadians at a time when many are\u00a0 without jobs, as well as the potential impact on the development of the poultry industry.<\/p>\n
