As part of its mandate, the Ministry of Trade and Industry promotes domestic and international trade. To effectively achieve this goal, there is the need to generate trade data through the tracking of price and other market indicators to examine trends.
In light of the above, the Ministry conducts monthly surveys in selected markets across the 10 regions of the country.
The MOTI Regional Trade and Industry Officers (RTIO’S) are responsible for conducting monthly surveys in three major markets in their respective regions.
