The domestic price of sardines (Canned fish) spikes by 60%<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\nThe price of sardines, a popular canned fish variety widely consumed in Nigeria, has surged by (60% YTD) to an average of N800 per can. The naira\u2019s continuous decline (down 37% YTD) fueled the price increase, as most sardines are imported from China, Indonesia, and Spain. Consequently, the demand for sardines is slowly declining due to shrinking disposable income. Similarly, the substitution effect is becoming stronger, as consumers switch to other fish varieties such as Herring and Horse Mackerel, locally known as shawa and kote in the Yoruba dialect.<\/p>\n
These and other burning economic issues were discussed on the Business incorporation programme on Channels TV by FDC\u2019s Manager, Funmi Adebowale.<\/p>\n
