Grocery prices will continue to hit Kiwi consumers and our economy hard. A report by the Commerce Commission shows prices are increasing again this year after appearing to stabilise last year. It's revealed we now pay the fifth highest grocery prices in the developed world. Grocery Action Group Chair Sue Chetwin told Mike Hosking the competition in New Zealand isn't particularly healthy. She says that unless the two major supermarkets know that they're going to face proper regulation or something big will happen to them, they can continue to charge high prices.

Competition's lacking in the supermarket sector and Kiwis are struggling to put food on the table. The Commerce Commission's Annual Grocery Report's revealed our grocery prices are the fifth-highest in the developed world. It highlights the market isn't supportive of new players, and major supermarkets continue to wield power over smaller stores. Grocery Commissioner Pierre van Heerden says extra competition is key to bringing prices down more. "That's why we're so focused on using all the tools we have available to ensure that we do get competition going in the market for the long term."

Oliver Browne, Accounting Lecturer in University College Cork and consumer commentator, discusses rising food prices

BEEF: The market's still sliding, but not as fast as you'd think with production this tight. Ribeyes and tenderloins? We may have already hit the year's low – so is an expensive holiday season inevitable? Thin meats are dropping, grinds dipped too, but this market's playing a long game.POULTRY: Chicken production is holding strong – wings are steady, breasts are ticking up, and tenders dipped a bit. Demand isn't going anywhere, but will prices stay calm? Plus, we're a month Avian flu-free – can we keep the streak alive?GRAINS: Strong crops, weak exports, and tariff concerns are pushing corn, soy, and wheat lower. Prices are slipping – but is this a true bargain, or just the calm before another shakeup?PORK: The pork market's moving lower – and even bellies are along for the ride. Is this a one-week blip or the start of an early slide? We'll need another week to see where this goes.DAIRY: After weeks of slipping, butter's starting to climb again – but is it just a pause or a new trend? This week's calm might be the quiet before the next churn.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

David Murphy, Economics and Public Affairs Editor, reports that food prices are estimated to have risen by 4.6% over the last 12 months, according to new figures from the Central Statistics Office.

Food inflation figures are beginning to ease year-on-year, but some key categories remain elevated. The figure is sitting at three percent for the June quarter, down point-2 of a percent on the previous reading. Rural Editor Emily Minney spoke with Rabobank's Senior Food Retail Analyst Michael Harvey about the data.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

BEEF: The summer slide continues. Ribeyes and strips are dragging the market down, and briskets and grinds are finally dipping – but don't let your guard down just yet. With production still sluggish, we've likely got a few more weeks of softness before fall starts cooking up something new.POULTRY: Demand is driving this market – wings, breasts, and tenders are all on the rise. With summer heat slowing growth and no sign of appetite cooling off, prices could keep climbing. Three Avian Flu-free weeks in a row? Let's hope the streak sticks.GRAINS: Crops look great and prices are steady – for now. With new tariffs on deck and shifting global demand, especially for soy, the calm could break. Keep your eyes peeled… August might shake things up.PORK: Bellies keep climbing – $200 is in sight – while everything else takes a breather. Butts and loins are easing down, making loins a standout value. If you're planning menus, now's the time to think pork.DAIRY: Things are calm in cheese country – just a slight move in block and barrel this week. Butter's taking the stairs down again, and it's not done dropping yet. Could be more room to melt.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

Our reporter Florence Okojie has been asking shoppers in Stillorgan and Sandymount about food prices

This business with the supermarkets and their pricing... Consumer NZ has launched a petition. They want change to stop prices being incorrectly labelled. So you go to checkout and scan receipts, something's different to what you expected. Then we would get a refund on the product, and the product for free. The idea is that if you make the punishment more than fit the crime, they'll stop doing it. Which I get. But the supermarkets reckon —and Consumer NZ calls this spin— that there's just too many products and they honestly make mistakes. More often than not the prices are out by a few cents - so $5.99 instead $5.95. The key question here is whether we think the supermarkets are doing this on purpose, or whether they're just large organisation that occasionally get small things wrong. And correct the errors when spotted. Refunds where necessary. If we're saying they are deliberately doing this, that's a whole other thing. I'm not saying the supermarkets should be given a Hall Pass here, but if we're talking about a few million dollars a year spread over a population of five million, plus the free products on top of refunds they'd have to fund... You've got to ask if the potential payoff is worth the cost of pushing a policy like this. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

BEEF: Beef is finally cooling off—but is it enough? Strip loins and ribeyes are leading the decline, but ground beef and roasts are holding firm. With production still lagging behind last year, could this be the start of a slow slide or just a summer stall?POULTRY: Chicken remains the go-to protein, but how long can it hold? Wings are flying high on demand, breasts and tenders are steady, and production is slightly up. No new Avian Flu reports this week, which is always good news.GRAINS: Soybeans are about to stir things up. Despite strong supply and a promising crop, new demand for biofuel could send prices climbing fast. Will corn and wheat follow suit? Stay tuned.PORK: Bellies keep marching higher, and there's no sign of slowing. While other cuts ease off recent highs, bacon's sizzling summer run looks far from over – will August bring the peak, or just more heat?DAIRY: Dairy takes a dip across the board this week – but is it the bottom, or just the beginning?

Households are still finding it tough to pay for the basics, with high prices not easing yet. Stats NZ has revealed the cost of food rose 4.6 percent in the 12 months to June. It's largely driven by double-digit increases for products like red meat, cheese and milk Infometrics principal economist Brad Olsen says the general economy is still experiencing intense price pressure and weakness - which isn't comforting.

Beef: Beef prices are finally starting to cool after the July 4th holiday – but how fast will they fall, and which cuts will drop first? With low production still keeping things tight, we're not in freefall territory yet… but if you're buying ribeyes, strips, or grinds, you'll want to hear what's coming next.Poultry: Chicken remains the go-to protein, with wings in tight supply and prices climbing again. Breasts and tenders are steady for now – but with hot summer temps affecting animal intake and a new avian flu case on the radar, will this balanced market stay steady... or tip?Grains: Prices are down across corn, soy, and wheat, but with crops thriving in the fields and new tariffs shaking up export dynamics, how long will this calm last?Pork: Bacon lovers, brace yourselves—bellies are climbing and could hit $200 soon. But beyond bacon? The rest of the pork market is cooling off… for now.Dairy: A calm week on the dairy front—but is it the quiet before a dip? With butter holding steady and cheese prices barely budging, the market might just be gearing up for a slide.Savalfoods.com | Find us on Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

The days of cheap food are over! That is the warning coming from the Irish Creamery Milk Supp­liers Association (ICMSA). The farming group was speaking in light of food inflation being double the rate of general inflation, with has resulted in many families being left with little option but to spend an additional €3,000 a year due to the rise in grocery prices. The ICMSA is pointing the finger of blame for the rising cost of produce at politicians, accusing them of “profound ignorance”. To discuss this furthere, Alan Morrissey was joined by Martin McMahon, Clare ICMSA Secretary and O'Callaghan's Mills farmer and Eddie Punch, Clare Farmers Rep and former General Secretary of the ICSA, Cratloe farmer.

Beef is still riding high – tight supply, strong demand, and prices climbing week after week. But is relief finally in sight? You might want to stock up before the July 4th smoke clears…

Food prices have risen at their highest rate in 18 months, and inflation is heading towards the top of the Reserve Bank's 3 per cent target. 

ICE is pausing immigration raids on restaurants, for now. Fast-food prices are slowing, but consumers haven't caught on. And a former Darden CEO has joined the board of Portillo's.

Right, let's deal to the economy. There were two interesting things yesterday. The first was the food price inflation number showed it is not contained. Why it is increasing beyond broad inflation is a many and varied thing, and the upside of these numbers is we can control them to a degree. You don't have to buy chocolate, given cocoa is through the roof. You don't have to buy butter, or a lot of dairy. Vegetables are up, but that is seasonal. Seasonal fruit and vegetables are always reasonably priced. Water though, which was the second thing, is not a luxury. Our bill arrived yesterday and, yet again, the price is going up, this time by 7%. It's like rates and electricity – they're all going up and they're all going up beyond the band of inflation. The trouble with this is severalfold. Firstly, this in and of itself is inflationary and it isn't productive. In other words, we are no better off. I still use the same water, it just costs more. Ideally what you want is more stuff done to produce the income to afford the bills. So if the cost of living is going up 3% and your income is going up 5%, we are okay and are ahead of the curve. This, sadly, is not happening. So we most likely have no growth driving the economy and yet we have increasing costs to operate that non-productive economy. That my friends is called stagflation. So, can we control Israel attacking Iran and the oil price spiking? No. Can we control the cost of the ship through troubled Middle Eastern waters? No. But can we control, to some degree, this incessant cost-plus accounting that's going on domestically by people who got the taste of price increases during Covid and basically never stopped? You would hope so. This is a central Government thing, especially given a lot of these businesses, weather and power companies, water agencies, or councils have a major central Government input. If the banks were right yesterday upon the release of the services sector numbers when they said this was an economy in recession, again, price rises in food and water aren't helping what is becoming an alarmingly large hole.

It's being suggested the pricey cost of our food baskets is great for the economy but bad for our wallets. Food inflation has risen 4.4% annually, the highest in 18 months. Meat, poultry and fish had the biggest increases, while butter, milk and cheese drove grocery prices. Foodstuffs North Island CEO Chris Quin told Mike Hosking increases in foods like Kiwifruit and butter is fantastic for New Zealand's economy, but tough for households. Quin says they're doing everything they can, but they can't contain the same costs of energy and people. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Food prices increased 4.4 percent in the 12 months to May 2025, following a 3.7 percent increase in the 12 months to April 2025, according to figures released by Stats NZ.

Should Ontarians expect to pay more at the grocery store? And is there a risk that companies could exploit the chaos and bump up sticker prices regardless?

I hope you are following the butter debate, specifically the Costco part of it. Why? Because it's an insight into how the world works, especially the economic world, and why Nicola Willis and her crusade to convince us supermarkets are ripping us off might be wrong. Willis sighted Costco the other day when she once again reminded us she is back to business on the supermarkets and looking to break them up, or twist their arms, or regulate them where it hurts, so we can all feel so much better about the price of a trolley full of goods. What she knew, she said, was competition is good for prices. As I tried to say, that is school cert economics and, although partially right, isn't the whole answer. Butter at Costco is $10 per kilo. Elsewhere you can pay $10 and get half that. In that very example is part of the story - it costs different amounts all over the place on any given day, depending on where you go, or when you go. It's a bit like petrol. Also a bit like petrol, the end price is driven by international pricing. We pay international prices because we make the stuff and sell it. Its how we make a living and we should be celebrating this. If farmers weren't doing so well we would be truly stuffed. Costco, because they are large, as in globally large, buy more of anything than anyone here locally. Because of that their price per unit drops and their margins are smaller. Scale counts Also, as the consumers group pointed out, it's a loss-leader for Costco. In other words they are losing money on every pack they sell. Why? Because it gets you in the store to buy other stuff. Remember, at Costco you have already paid a membership fee to be there. So their butter isn't really $10 per kilo. They are eating the difference, as Trump would say, in the hope you buy stuff in aisle eight. Lots of supermarkets run loss leaders. They also put chocolate biscuits at eye line to tempt you. It's a clever business. But Costco and their butter is not a real economic equation. And there is no magic in their pricing, the way Nicola seems to think there is.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
