Fuels in Portugal have exceeded the two euros per liter barrier, a milestone that is worrying sector operators.
APED, the association representing distributors, warned that the entire value chain is being pressured by this increase, from agricultural production to non-food areas.
The association recognizes that increases in transport and logistics costs will, sooner or later, be reflected in the final price of goods available in supermarkets.
This phenomenon arises in a context of inflationary pressure affecting multiple sectors of the Portuguese economy, with a direct impact on consumers' purchasing power.
