The Ukrainian bakery industry is facing challenges due to high prices and insufficient quantity of grade 2 wheat on the domestic market, according to the president of the All-Ukrainian Association of Bakers. This shortage is expected to lead to a 5-10% increase in the price of bread by the end of the year, along with rising prices of fuel and energy sources. The industry is hoping for an increase in the credit limit under the "5-7-9%" program to allow them to purchase wheat before its price rises further.
