Recently, the Secretary of the Association of Producers and Exporters of Mineral and Drinking Water in Iran announced a 20% increase in the price of the products of this industry due to the increase in the price of raw materials from the petrochemical industry and said that the petrochemical industry makes their products more expensive with the increase in the price of the dollar in the Nima system. This is an ax to the root of the food industry.

Previously, Mohammadreza Mortazavi – the head of the board of directors of the Food Industry Associations and the Secretariat of Industry, Mining and Trade of Iran announced the 130-150% increase in the price of petrochemicals and the subsequent increase in the cost of food industry packaging in recent months and said that when If parent industries such as petrochemical, steel, electricity, and the like increase their prices indiscriminately, it will affect other industries as well; Therefore, this is one of the reasons for the increase in the prices of various goods in recent months, and another reason is the exchange rate fluctuations. It seems that the continuation of this situation has also caused problems for textile units.
