The price per kilogram of eggs should be indicated from August

From August, prices should be indicated also in kilograms in the stores. The Poultry Product Council lobbied for the regulation, in order to repel against black economy.

The economy minister’s regulations appeared on Monday in the Hungarian Official Gazette. The regulation also specifies the minimum weight of S to XL-sized eggs.

The Ministry of Rural Development announced in early May, that they support the proposal of the Poultry Product Council. They argue that the price of the smallest, S labeled imported eggs seems to be lower, but compared to the normal sized eggs the consumers pay more. (origo, FN24)
