The coordinator of the Egypt Fish Boycott Initiative, Wassam al-Safty, announced the initiative’s success in reducing fish prices by 50% across nine governorates. The initiative aims to make fish affordable for citizens with limited incomes. The response from Port Said residents has been positive, reflecting dissatisfaction with seafood prices nationwide. Prices have already dropped since the launch, with green mackerel at 70 Egyptian pounds, sea bream ranging from 80-110 pounds, and salmon at 50 pounds. Al-Safty emphasized the initiative’s alignment with President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi’s call to avoid overpriced products and urged collective efforts to improve living standards.
