Despite a significant drop in inflation, prices in supermarkets will not fall. At least, “we do not have a significant, very strong drop, neither at present nor in perspective“, warns Michel-Édouard Leclerc, guest of the RTL-M6-Le Figaro-Public Senate Grand Jury, Sunday November 24.
“All the inflation that was taken over the previous three years, it's in someone's pocket or it went into someone's investment, and it will not return in the form of a 20% bonus within three months which come to the consumer's pocket”, underlines the president of the strategic committee of E.Leclerc.
“It’s certain” that we will not find the prices of 2019 pre-inflation, he insists. “A period of negotiations will open for which we are in the process of receiving prices from major suppliers. All price requests are on the rise. Obviously, I can tell you, faith of Leclerc, that we are going to seek reductions, particularly in sectors where things have soared,” he promises.
Mbut this will not be “30% reductions”, figure used in comparison to the explosion in the price of “pasta or sunflower oil at one time”.
