Ukrainians were shown how prices for products, utilities, and services have changed over the year.


Goods and services that have risen the most in price over the past year
The State Statistics Service reported which goods and services have become more expensive as of November 2024. According to consumer market analysis, the highest price increase has been recorded in two categories: electricity and vegetables.
The tariffs for electricity have increased by 63.6%, and the prices for vegetables have risen by 62.9% - official statistical data indicate. Experts link such significant changes to shifts in tariff policies in the energy sector and seasonal fluctuations in prices for agricultural products.
In addition, following the record increases in prices for electricity and vegetables, other essential goods and services have also become more expensive. In the food sector, the price increases for oil - 30.7% and for fruits - 24.7% are particularly noticeable. Overall, food products became 14.4% more expensive.
There is also a noticeable increase in the price of fuel - 10.3%. In the service sector, price increases occurred in medical services - 14.9% and education - 11.9%. The telecommunications sector showed the least price increase - only 4.7%.
Experts note that the main reasons for the price increase are changes in energy tariff rates, fluctuations in the exchange rate, and economic instability.
It was previously reported that prices for butter, milk, and cheese in Ukraine have increased even further.
