> In Europe, the retail price of cocaine has remained stable at about €50 per gramme for several years, while its purity has increased, according to the EU’s drugs monitoring agency (EMCDDA). Consumption has risen, with wastewater analysis showing cities in Belgium and the Netherlands among those with the highest concentrations.
Hm okay, that means?
And as we can see from this graph it’s risen from 100% purity to over 140% purity in only a decade.
So it’s becoming better value for money.
Improvements on all sides!
Next step Bio Label
Looks like price fixing since 2019, not good. Competition authorities should look into this.
finally some good news.
way to go cartels!
That’s because of our very strict EU food safety rules!!
if purity increased so corruption, because that means more cocaine is getting into europe.
Great to see the EU taking this seriously and collecting the data necessary to ensure quality and price stability!
