Expensive bread in para: Excessive wheat prices will challenge the user daily in belly | The economy

Paramens, who start the day with the latest bread, are changing the daily routine. The rise in brown prices, high dollar and imports, has been affected by the cost of bakery products in Belem. Bakers have to cross some of the growth of the user, which already feels in the pocket and makes the table of inflation on basic inputs.

Growth and pressing the dollar brown

According to the Bakery Manager in the vicinity of Umarijal, the main input of the wheat – bakery products – is very expensive, because it is quoted in dollars. “The purchase of wheat is in the dollars. This is the weight. When the growth is small, we have the price. But with a big increase, we must pass it unfortunately.”

Brown products, such as French bread and salty bread, recorded an average increase of 5% in the last four months. The kilo of bread goes from about $ 17 to $ 18, jumps from 90 7.90 to 90 8.90.

In addition to wheat, other inputs that make up the final cost such as butter, herbivore, cheese and yeast are also high – often for similar reasons such as imports and oscillation in the international market.

Eventually, the customer pushes the belt

For those who take bread every day, Christina Brito, 52 -year -year -old pensioner, has a direct impact on the family budget. “The bread I bought for 50 0.50 was now departed at 70 0.70. It looks very low, but weighing at the end of the month,” he said.

Fernando Jarbas, 55 -year -old self -employment worker, has the same impression: “Bread burned. Crescent and hot mixed almost double the price.” Reducing cost and receiving habits. “Before I take six bread, I will now take four. I will stop buying salty. This is on special occasions,” he said.

Registration, but without sales (yet)

Despite the growth, the bread is tight in the routine of bellenens. “Para culture eats a lot of pastries. We have not fallen in sales, only a few complaints at the beginning,” said Naldo. The exception is cakes, whose consumption has fallen slightly to the festive period.

The scenario is still uncertain. “We hope that prices will be stabilized, but if there is a new growth, we have to correct it again. All this depends on the foreign market,” the manager warned.

Waiting stability, but there is a risk of new discharge

Both traders and consumers are concerned about the coming months. The volatility of the international market and the dollar’s praise maintain the risk of new growth in the radar.

“I believe you should stabilize. If you go up that way, it will be difficult every day,” Christina said. For Fernando, the situation is obvious: “Bakery becomes luxury. If you go up, it’s only at a special date.”
