On November 26, a working meeting with representatives of 80 major retail chains and local governments was chaired by Minister of Trade and Integration Arman Shakkaliyev. Participants discussed measures to ensure price stability for food products during the period of increased seasonal demand traditionally observed before the New Year holidays.

The Minister noted that maintaining stable prices is important for the comfort of citizens and sustainable market development. To support uninterrupted food supplies, a "green corridor" has been established, allowing for faster delivery of goods to the domestic market. State support mechanisms are also in place to ensure timely replenishment of stocks.

During the meeting, a new stage of the "Bereke Fest" campaign was announced, scheduled to take place before the holidays. This campaign has previously helped reduce the cost of a number of products and increase their availability. The new stage aims to maintain stable pricing and create favorable conditions for consumers.

Retail chains expressed their willingness to participate in the initiative and collaborate on improving service quality and product availability.

Local governments will continue to organize agricultural fairs, where produce is sold at affordable prices. Such events help expand consumer choice and further stabilize the market.

The Ministry of Trade and Integration invites businesses to continue working together, participate in seasonal promotions, and maintain product availability during the holiday season.
