Questions
Where do these prices come from?
From the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics' weekly Sensitive Price Indicator. PBS staff record prices in markets in 17 cities every Thursday and publish them the next day. We import the official data file and link to each release.
Why is my local shop's price different?
These are averages across several markets in each city on one day. Prices vary between shops, brands and neighbourhoods, and can change during the week.
Why do tomato prices change so much?
Tomatoes are perishable and supply shifts between growing regions and imports during the year, so weekly swings of 20–30% are common.
