Mr Bandula Gunawardena, Minister for Trade, Marketing Development, Cooperatives and Consumer Services said that the government will now henceforth stock the Dedicated Economic Centers (DEC) in Ratmalana and Narahenpita with fabrics and apparels.
He said this would be in addition to the food grains already being sold in these stores and would be sold at very cost effective rates. In the second phase of the project, several trade stalls would be set up to sell these items of clothing and fabrics at retail and wholesale prices.
Dedicated economic centres program launched by the Trade Marketing Development Cooperatives and Consumer Services Ministry is to help farmers get remunerative prices as well to also help consumers get goods at fair prices and to foster competition in the market place.
