Food price maintenance

747 food vendors in 16 fresh markets in Bangkok and peripheral provinces agree to maintain the prices of 10 one-dish meals for a year.

 

 
Under the agreement with the Commerce Ministry's Internal Trade Department, they will quote no more than Bt20 for rice with omlette while maximum noodle prices will be Bt30-35.
The department said that the price maintenance is possible as raw materials for the 10 menus have not experienced an increase in costs.
