The Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GZS) and Chamber of Craft
Industries (OZS) urged Slovenian companies to sign up to a euro price
code. Companies adhering to the code will pledge not to raise their
prices as part of the upcoming euro changeover.
According to the GZS, the companies that have already signed the
price code expressed their own will to do so. "They wanted to
contribute to a stable business environment in Slovenia, trust among
business partners, customers and consumers, and confidence in the euro
as the national and European currency."
The OZS, too, called on small companies not to abuse the euro
changeover and increase prices of products and services. It supports
the general recommendation to companies to show responsibility towards
consumers and their purchasing power.
