Shopkeeper in Balochistan Reduces Prices of Over 50 Basic Food Items for Ramadan

Abdul Hakeem, the owner of a shop-cum-bakery on the Quetta-Karachi highway in Balochistan province, started offering up to 30 percent discounts on essential items during Ramadan, three years ago to alleviate the financial burden of customers. His store has become a popular destination for those looking for affordable rates without the inconvenience faced at utility stores, earning appreciation from locals.

Inflation challenges persist in Pakistan, particularly during Ramadan, despite a recent decrease from a peak of 38 percent to 23.1 percent in February. However, Hakeem’s efforts to support his community during this challenging time are commendable and offer a beacon of hope to those in need.
