Krasnodar, 4 February – Yug Times. Inflation in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai fell to its lowest level in five years in 2025, marking a notable slowdown in price growth.
Annual inflation in the region stood at 5.5% in December 2025, down from 9.5% a year earlier. This was the lowest year-end inflation figure recorded since 2020.
“This shows that the key interest rate is performing its primary function by curbing excessive demand and slowing price growth,” said Piotr Vo ronin, Deputy Head of the Economic Department of the Southern Main Directorate of the Bank of Russia. “At the same time, inflation has not yet reached the target level of around 4%, so the Bank of Russia will continue to maintain high interest rates to ensure moderate price dynamics.” According to the Bank of Russia’s regional office, sugar prices declined for the seventh consecutive month, largely due to ample market supply. A strong sugar beet harvest led to significant stockpiles, prompting producers to accelerate sales. Prices for butter also fell, driven by increased milk production in the region, which boosted supply in the dairy market.
