The supply of sugar in retail shops has improved slightly easing the cost of the commodity after the price rally that was witnessed in the last two weeks.

The normalcy in supply comes after a government crackdown on illegal sugar was relaxed in the last few days following weeks of a clampdown by State agencies, which saw more than 1.2 million kilos of illegal commodity confiscated.
