Islamabad Market Committee Releases New Chicken, Vegetables and Fruit Price List for Thursday, February 13, 2025

ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad Market Committee has issued an updated price list for vegetables, fruits, and other essential food items, effective Thursday, February 13, 2025. The list reflects the latest market rates as of today.

The revised list includes common kitchen staples like tomatoes, onions, potatoes, garlic, and ginger.

Compared to last month, prices for tomatoes, cabbage, and cauliflower have significantly dropped, offering much-needed relief to consumers. Additionally, carrots, potatoes, and ginger are now available at more affordable rates, easing the financial strain on households.

The price list is updated daily to maintain transparency and ensure fair pricing. Consumers are encouraged to check the official rates before making purchases to avoid overpaying. Any instances of overcharging or irregularities should be reported to the relevant authorities for swift action.

At Islamabad’s fruit and vegetable market (Sabzi Mandi), produce from across Pakistan is available for sale. In addition to supplies from various cities in Punjab, fruits and vegetables from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa are also brought here. Farmers from remote areas of Balochistan and Sindh send their goods to the capital for sale. Seasonal produce from Gilgit-Baltistan, as well as items from neighboring countries like Iran and Afghanistan, can also be found. Shopkeepers in Islamabad regularly visit the market to buy goods, while numerous vendors from surrounding areas come to purchase in bulk.

Local residents prefer shopping at the fruit and vegetable market over local markets or sectors due to the availability of fresh produce at reasonable prices. The administration releases a daily price list to ensure consistent and fair pricing across the city.
