Impact of Illegal Use of Transport Boxes
October 7, 2025
There is concern in the agricultural sector following the Department of Agriculture's announcement of inspections regarding reusable packaging boxes for agricultural products. Many boxes are circulating without belonging to their legal owners, causing financial losses for businesses. Traders suggest removing three million boxes from circulation with compensation. The Troodos Producers Association calls for boxes to be returned to their owners and for a recycling system to be established. The law imposes administrative fines for violations.
