When is bread cheapest?
Bread has no reliable harvest season. Its price is set by the cedi and world prices, so there is no month that is predictably cheaper — watch the exchange rate instead.
Why bread moves
Bread is made from imported wheat flour, so its price is set by the cedi, world wheat prices and bakery fuel costs rather than any local harvest. A weaker cedi or a diesel increase shows up in the loaf within a few weeks.
