Fines of up to Dh200,000 for breaching UAE’s egg and poultry price cap – The National

Retailers and suppliers face fines of up to Dh200,000 if they flout the UAE's 13 per cent price increase cap on eggs and poultry products, the Ministry of Economy said on Tuesday.

The ministry last month approved the increase due to higher production costs incurred by suppliers.

It later said the decision only applied to goods supplied by nine UAE producers and would be reviewed after six months.
