The annual inflation rate in Seychelles slowed to a three-month low of 0.97% in January, down from 1.71% in December, according to data released on Friday by the country’s National Bureau of Statistics. The decline was driven by lower prices of food items, particularly milk, cheese, eggs, and meat, as well as non-food categories such as education, health, and transportation.
