From an observation of the sale prices in supermarkets in Pristina and Tirana for milk and yogurt products for some of the main brands of Kosovo and Albania, as can be seen from the photos, the results are as follows:
In Tirana:
Erzeni cow's milk 1 L - 190 lek or 1.94 euro.
Gjirofarma cow's milk 1 L - 209 lek or 2.13 euros.
Ambla cow's milk 1 L - 220 lek or 2.24 euros.
Zepa cow's milk 1 L - 195 lek or 1.99 euro.
Lufra Tradita cow yogurt in plastic bottle 1 L - 195 ALL or 1.99 EUR/kg.
Gjirofarma cow yogurt in plastic bottle 910 gr - 199 lek or 2.23 euro/kg.
Zepa cow yogurt in plastic cup 950 gr - 229 lek or 2.46 euro kg.
Natural cow yogurt in plastic bottle 0.9 kg - 239 ALL or 2.71 EUR/kg.
Gjirofarma cow yogurt in a glass jar 970 gr - 289 lek or 3.04 euro/kg.
Zyfi cow yogurt in glass jar 1kg - 299 ALL or 3.05 EUR.
In Pristina:
Drena cow's milk 1 L - 1.09 euros.
Cow's milk Vita 1 L - 1.15 euros.
Tamël cow's milk 1 L - 0.99 euros.
Dukat cow's milk 1 L - 1.09 euros.
Natural Sharri cow yogurt in a plastic cup 1.9 kg - 2.39 euros or 1.26 euros/kg.
Bylmeti Extra cow yogurt in a plastic cup 1.4 kg - 1.85 euros or 1.32 euros/kg.
Based on the above prices, it follows that the average price of cow's milk packed in "Tetra pack" cartons:
In Tirana it is 2.07 euros for 1 liter.
In Pristina it is 1.08 euros for 1 liter.
While the average price of yogurt:
In Tirana it is 2.58 euros for 1 kg.
In Pristina it is 1.29 euros for 1 kg.
So, as shown above, the price comparison shows that the price of milk and yogurt, which are basic foods of daily consumption for every family, in Albania is about 2 times higher than in Kosovo.
The prices of dairy products in Albania, twice higher than in Kosovo and much higher than the prices of these products in all the countries of the Balkan region and in the EU countries, can be explained by the very serious situation that is the livestock sector in Albania has been going through in recent years when the number of cows and cattle has fallen catastrophically, reducing the amount of milk produced.
