Well, the biggest price rises that we ve seen is the cost of actually importing the fish, because the cost of fuel for the vessels bringing the fish from iceland has gone up, the cost of transport, the fish actually arrives from iceland into immingham and it s brought by container ship into immingham and then it s brought by road into grimsby. so, the fuel charges, there has been fuel surcharges all the way along to get the fish here. once the fish is here, obviously, the fish market itself is chilled, we ve got refrigeration, we ve got ice making machinery, we ve got grading equipment, everything is run with electricity, so we ve seen a marked increase in the cost of operation, and that has had an effect basically on the bottom line, which is profit. and what we ve got to do is work out at what point do we actually have to jack up the prices and pass on those costs? 0n the latest figures, prices are rising more than twice as fast as wages. workers are finding the average wage buys les
