Key takeaway • Compared to the week ended on 4 June, wheat flour prices decreased marginally likely due to improved supply and slightly lower price of petrol - positively impacting transport costs.
Why this matters
The slight decrease in wheat flour prices in Pakistan is a welcome development, particularly in the context of the country's ongoing economic challenges. The improved supply and lower transport costs, driven by a decrease in petrol prices, have contributed to this marginal decline. However, the overall cost of the basic food basket remains high, at PKR 15,813 per month, which is a significant burden for many households. The record high remittances in May, driven by Eid-related transfers, may provide some relief to families who rely on these funds to meet their basic needs. Nevertheless, the sustained high fuel prices, with petrol 46 percent higher and diesel 38 percent higher than pre-crisis levels, continue to exert upward pressure on food prices and overall living costs. As the situation continues to evolve, it will be crucial to monitor the impact of these factors on food security and the ability of households to access essential items.
