Food Prices Keep Rising Rapidly: Here Is Why

The cost of foodstuffs in Ghana keeps rising daily, and it doesn't seem like it will stop anytime soon. Various factors have played a massive role in this development, one of them being an increase in the cost of transportation.

The increase in fuel prices automatically means the cost of transportation will increase. Since most foodstuffs are transported from rural areas, the increase in transportation costs affects food items' prices.

In a documentary by citinewsroom some food vendors say the increase in the prices of some vending items like wrappers and takeaway packs pushes them to increase the prices of their food items so they can make ends meet.
