The merchants association at the Syam Bazar wholesale prices have fixed onions prices at Tk 80-85 per kilogram for onions from Myanmar and Tk 55-60 kilograms for onions imported from Egypt, Turkey and China.
“From Friday (Nov 8) onwards we’ll sell onions at the prices fixed by the merchants association,” said Mohammad Ilias, a trader at Shyam Bazar.
The association said that steps will be initiated against traders who sell onions for more than the fixed price.
