Local authorities in the Sais region have launched a large-scale campaign to monitor prices and food quality, as part of their efforts to crack down on price gouging and ensure the availability of high-quality goods just days before Eid al-Adha. The campaign aims to protect consumers from fraud and monopolisation, and ensure price stability during a period of high demand for food.
The campaign will include field tours carried out by mixed committees comprising representatives of various concerned sectors, which will monitor markets and shops to detect violations and take the necessary legal measures.
The campaign will focus on price and quality violations, and strict legal measures will be taken against violators, including the imposition of heavy fines and the withdrawal of exploitation licences if necessary, a source close to the authorities told Fas News.
A source close to the authorities confirmed to Fes News that these efforts come to ensure that the food products available in the markets meet the required quality standards at reasonable prices, in order to protect citizens from exploitation and price manipulation, especially in light of the difficult economic conditions faced by many families.
It is worth noting that this campaign is part of a series of measures taken by the Sayes authorities to ensure market stability, protect consumers, and provide a fair and organised trading environment.
