The law to amend a number of legal acts, including the law on domestic trade, was promulgated by incumbent President Igor Dodon. This obliges the traders of food products to purchase and display national products on at least 50% of the length of the shelf in stores, IPN reports.
“By this law, we will promote national products, will safeguard the interests of local producers, will protect the domestic market. Respectively, we will enable the national producers to develop,” Igor Dodon posted on Facebook.
The bill that defines the new domestic trade conditions was adopted by Parliament on December 4.
