The prices of rice packets as well as bread and other bakery products will increase following a hike in wheat flour and fuel prices and the depreciation of the Sri Lanka rupee.
A loaf of bread, from midnight today (11) will be upped by Rs. 30, to between Rs. 110 and Rs. 130, said the bakery owners association.
This follows the two wheat flour suppliers raising the price by Rs. 38 per kg.
Also, the price of a bun will also increase by Rs. 10, a rice packet by between Rs. 20 and Rs. 30, a Kottu by Rs. 10 and short-eats by Rs. 5 each.
