In Russia, trade representatives will be required to indicate on products the cost per kilogram or liter. The bill may be adopted as early as October, reporters report.

“In October, the State Duma will consider in the first reading the draft law “On Amendments to Article 10 of the Law of the Russian Federation “On Protection of Consumer Rights”. They are invited to oblige retail chains and stores to indicate the price per unit of measurement of goods – per kilogram or liter. The bill received a positive review from the legal department of the State Duma and was recommended for consideration, ”the document says, which was read by“News”.

This will help to avoid cases where sellers reduce the weight of the goods while maintaining the size of the packaging and selling price. And also reduce the amount of product in the package without changing the price.

Earlier URA.RU wrote that the State Duma proposed to contribute a bill that would allow consumers to buy products at the price indicated on the price tag. This was planned to be done so that buyers are less likely to encounter a situation where the price of the goods on the price tag does not match the price of the goods on the receipt.
