MUSCAT —
Khalil bin Abdullah al Khonji, Chairman of the Oman Chamber of Commerce and Industry (OCCI), will meet tomorrow wholesale and retail traders to discuss ways to stabilise foodstuff prices in the domestic market and maintain supply of multi-choice foodstuff at affordable prices, as the holy month of Ramadhan is about to start.

He will review suppliers’ preparedness to maintain steady supply of staples to the market. Traders and private sector establishments are invited to supply all necessary foodstuff during the month to enable citizens and residents to meet their needs, Al Khonji stated. He called upon members of the public to avoid consumerism. Al Khonji highlighted the social responsibility of the private sector in maintaining the price ceiling of basic commodities and supplying enough quantities of foodstuff.
