A little clarification. Food prices in markets and stores in Crimea can vary significantly for several reasons:

Taxes and profitability: Stores and markets may have different tax obligations and impose different markup rates on products. Stores often have higher operating expenses, such as renting retail space and paying staff, which can lead to higher prices.
Industrial production and supplies: Stores often purchase products directly from manufacturers or wholesalers, which allows them to receive discounts when purchasing in bulk. Markets, on the other hand, may depend on smaller supplies from farmers and local producers, which can increase the cost of products.
Competition: Stores often compete with each other for customers and may offer discounts and promotions to attract customers. Markets may be less susceptible to such competition.
Quality and packaging: In stores, food may be of better quality and packaged according to food safety regulations, which can increase its value. In markets, products may be presented in simpler or no packaging, which reduces their cost.
Seasonality and local production: Market prices may also depend on the seasonality of agriculture and local production. Markets may have more seasonal and local products available at lower prices than in stores.
Supply and demand: Prices may vary depending on supply and demand. If there is a high demand for a certain product in the market, prices may rise. In stores, pricing may be more stable.
Direct access to manufacturers: In markets, consumers can have direct access to producers and farmers, thereby avoiding middlemen and reducing prices.

As a result, prices in markets and stores depend on many factors, and consumers can choose where to buy products depending on their preferences and budget. Competition between markets and stores can also create price differences and encourage the supply of better products.
