Contrôle surprise à Louga : des commerçants pris en flagrant délit de hausse des prix
On September 17, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., the regional trade service of Louga, supported by the central police station of Louga, the regional brigade of the Hygiene service and the regional directorate of Livestock, carried out an operation to control and inspect the prices and quality of consumer products in the various markets of the commune.
During this operation, about ten owners of general stores, gas depots and shops received summonses from the regional trade department for failing to display the price list for gas, bread, rice, oil and sugar, on the one hand, and for illegal pricing practices, on the other.
Indeed, some of those involved were caught red-handed violating the prices set by the tariff schedule issued by the competent authority. For example, increases of twenty-five (25) CFA francs, and even fifty (50) CFA francs, were observed on a bag of rice, a kilogram of sugar, a twenty (20) liter bottle of oil, a baguette, and a six (6) kilogram gas cylinder, according to the report read by Seneweb.
However, this initiative falls within the scope of the regional trade department's missions, particularly in terms of protecting the purchasing power of the population, public health and compliance with current trade regulations.
