rate upsurge, Avers accountant, Ms. Sara Sepanyan told PanARMENIAN.Net

now we are consulting together to determine the exact raise in product
price. "Even if prices grow, we'll do our best for them not to affect
our consumer's finances too much."
VIDIS Distribution, the financial adviser of Philippe Morris
representation in Armenia, stated that no price changes have been
effected. "We could be condidering the possibilities of price change
later," the company representative noted
The dram-to-dollar exchange rate has gone up to AMD 360/$1 in few
hours today against yesterday's 305 -310 index for sale and purchase
respectively.

floating rate policy.

from AMD 360 to 380 in 2009.
