HIBAPRESS – Casablanca
Despite the approach of Eid al-Adha, the prices of "Dhuwara" are still maintaining high levels in a number of markets in the city of Casablanca, at a time when many citizens were expecting a gradual decrease in prices with the approach of the religious occasion.
According to a number of professionals, the price of "Dhuwara of the lamb" currently ranges between 350 and 400 dirhams, which has sparked the discontent of a large segment of consumers who considered that the costs of Eid are increasingly weighing on families year after year. Professionals believe that the high demand for "Dhuwara" and the shortage of supply during this period due to the small number of livestock slaughtering before Eid, in addition to the costs of raising livestock, transportation, and marketing expenses, are all factors that contribute to maintaining prices at high levels, especially within the major cities that are experiencing increasing demand with the approach of Eid. Between the complaints of citizens and the justifications of professionals, the prices of a number of products related to Eid al-Adha remain a subject of wide discussion, in light of the anticipation of Moroccan families for what the last days before Eid will reveal in terms of changes at the market level.
