Canada's grocery sector needs more competition to help keep food prices down and encourage new entrants, the competition watchdog has found.
Produce is shown in a grocery store in Toronto on Friday, Nov. 30, 2018. Canada's competition watchdog said Tuesday the grocery sector needs more competition to help keep food prices down and encourage new entrants.
The competition watchdog proposed four recommendations to improve competition and lower prices, including an innovation strategy to support new grocery businesses and expand consumer choice. In a survey of consumer attitudes and opinions about the grocery sector, some Canadians said the country’s laws don’t go far enough to stop deals that are bad for competition, while others felt the Competition Bureau has just not done a good enough job enforcing those laws, the study said.
The big three grocery chains have been embroiled in an alleged bread price-fixing scheme, which observers say has triggered distrust of the grocery industry.
