The Secretary of Domestic Trade, Roberto Feletti, recalled that during the last week 8 measures were taken to make price stability more efficient.
On his Twitter account, the official said that “we renew #Now12, the program to boost the consumption of nationally produced goods, which allows financing purchases with credit cards in 3, 6, 12, 18 and up to 24 fixed installments. During the last quarter of 2021, one in four purchases was made with #Now12 “.
Feletti also recalled that it was announced “the launch of #VueltaAlCole, so that all boys and girls can access a basket of school supplies, clothing and health protection. It covers 25 categories and more than 160 essential products for the start of school.”
I want to tell you 8️⃣ measures that we have implemented from the Government in this past week, aimed at caring for and protecting the income of all Argentines and Argentines ???

The official pointed out that “in a joint effort between the Ministries of Productive Development and Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, we established 2 actions so that the increase in international prices does not impact the domestic market. One is the program #CutsCare: 7 cuts of meat at agreed prices for national consumption, which comes into force tomorrow. And another is the renewal, for one year, of the oil sector trust that seeks to ensure the stability of local prices of the oils most consumed by the population.”
Later on, Feletti pointed out that “we held a series of meetings with retail and wholesale supermarkets to strengthen compliance with +Care Prices throughout the country.
In addition, we started working on a new version of the basket of mass consumption products that can be found in nearby shops”.
“Given the worrying situation that many Argentines are experiencing today in relation to the rental market, we received the Real Estate Chamber and decided to create a work table between owners, real estate agents and tenants, to provide solutions and answers,” the official said. .
Finally, Feletti maintained that “we issued resolution 43/2022 in order to ensure, for consumers in all provinces, reference prices for mass consumption products and, thus, reduce the existing asymmetries between the regions of the country”.
