Association of Master Bakers and Caterers of Nigeria (AMBCN) says a 50 per cent increase in retail prices of bread and other finished baked items is inevitable.

Ahead of the take-off of the School Feeding Programme in Lagos State, scheduled to start this month, members of the Association of Master Bakers and Caterers of Nigeria (AMBCN) have been sensitised on food safety and management.

From all indications, consumers of bread may have to pay more in weeks to come, as the price of the staple food is likely to rise.
