Romania: New Romanian Law on Food Trading Triggers Adjustments in Supply

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

A new bill could impact food retail operations and the supply chain in Romania. The view of the supporters is that the new provisions will force retailers to source more food products from Romanian producers and encourage expansion of local production, while opponents argue that the new law will trigger higher prices for food products and is not a guarantee of increased competitiveness. Although the law is in many respects vague and incomplete and requires additional legislation, AgBucharest attempted to assess the initial potential impact on U.S. food exports.
