Benna raises milk price again as supply costs climb

Malta Dairy Products increased Benna milk prices for the second time in six months. A one-litre carton of whole milk rose by seven cents, from €1.30 to €1.37. The company attributed the change to higher costs across its supply chain. Because Benna is the principal processor of locally produced milk, the adjustment has a direct effect on routine household spending and the dairy sector. The repeat rise also added to public concern about food inflation and the pressure on essential grocery budgets.
