The National Superintendency of Agrifood Management (SUNAGRO) maintains a permanent link with the distribution networks of the Venezuelan Food Producer and Distributor (PDVAL) and the Food Market (MERCAL) to plan and monitor the operation of the establishments opened in the national territory, said the mayor of Supervision, Fernando Pietrini Voyer.


The official explained that, through the Supervisory Directorate, the agency issues the corresponding orders and appoints prosecutors who are deployed throughout the country. “The commission monitors prices, openings and public service in these establishments on weekends,” he said.


During an interview with Venezolana de Televisión (VTV), Pietrini indicated that SUNAGRO collects information electronically and in real time, allowing us to identify the sales value of priority and strategic items. “We monitor at the national level what are the highest prices in which state and the lowest in which state they operate,” he said.


The mayor stated that these actions seek to consolidate balance and balance within the distribution chain that encompasses the public supply network MERCAL and PDVAL.
