IP: final consumer will see effects of the plan in a week


By not contemplating price controls and recognizing the importance of the proper functioning of supply chains and greater food production, business organizations welcomed the Package Against Inflation and Famine (Pacic), announced yesterday by the federal government .

The benefits of the anti-inflationary plan could even be reflected in the final consumer, no later than the following week, once the details of the elimination of tariffs on meat and imported inputs are defined with the Ministry of Economy, reported businessmen from the Confederation of Industrial Chambers.

They applauded the measures to eliminate tariffs on some imported products, the actions to combat insecurity on the highways, maintaining energy subsidies and postponing the Carta Porte, which will help contain the inflationary impact.

Eugenio Salinas, president of the Foreign Trade Commission of the Concamin, said that the package does not contemplate a price reduction by decree, but rather supports to curb the inflationary impact and prevent it from being passed on to consumers.

Héctor Tejada Shaar, president of the Confederation of National Chambers of Commerce, agreed on this, stating that the Pacic “is an agreement of goodwill, where each of the businessmen must see how far they can make the effort to maintain the commitment not to raise prices.”

On the other hand, Juan Cortina Gallardo, president of the National Agricultural Council (CNA), stressed that supply chains have been affected, such as the increase in energy and strategic inputs such as fertilizers and other raw materials.

Therefore, “the actions proposed by the federal government in the three strategic points of production, distribution, and foreign trade will have a positive impact on the increase in production and therefore on the increase in supply in the raw materials market” . He announced that he will promote the initiative called Corn for Mexico.
