On the way to good news for the summer? Bruno Le Maire is committed to this. The day after the agreement with the major producers of agri-food, the Minister of Economy promised that from July on the shelves of supermarkets a drop in prices for some products would be seen.
The threat of sanctions
“I tell the French that from July onwards, prices will drop for a certain number of links and products,” launched the Bercy client on BFM, emphasizing that “that’s what the manufacturers committed to” at a meeting the previous day. “And we will check it, and punish those who do not play the game,” he warned. Among the products mentioned, Bruno Le Maire named pasta, poultry, cereals and even oils, namely those “prices in the wholesale markets are falling.”
A long-awaited promise in conditions of galloping inflation. Moreover, as the minister recalled, Insee and DGCCRF data show that the margin level of agri-food companies “strongly increased in the first months of the year. And they more than made up for the losses of the last two years”, the minister noted.
- ANALYSIS – Retailers or manufacturers, who benefits from inflation?
In return, Bruno Le Maire asked them “this part of the markup should be returned to consumers.” “If you do that, great. If you don’t, we’ll get it back through taxes.”he has launched for companies in the sector, assuring that he will continue “play the role” that belongs to him. “Reducing Prices for Consumers by Pooling Players”.
