Russian suppliers have begun to raise prices for confectionery products.
Since mid-November, six companies have raised prices for the sweets they produce.
The reason for the price increase, as Kommersant points out, is the increase in the cost of production of candies, marshmallows and wafers.
In this regard, the cost of confectionery for retailers will increase in December-January. Prices may rise by 10-15 percent.
Manufacturers point out that production costs have risen sharply in recent months.
Prices for ingredients for confectionery production have increased significantly.
Among other things, logistics costs contributed to the rise in prices.
Packaging costs and staff salaries also affected the rise in prices for confectionery products.
