Challenges for Agribusiness
‘From farm to retail – how food prices are determined in Australia’ (RIRDC) confirms the challenges:
“In response to food shopper sentiment , there has been increased price
competition between major grocery chains over that period to be seen as
providing best value prices on food and groceries”. (page 6)
and
“With rising operating, ingredient and labour costs, the static retail pricing
environment for staple food lines has created significant cost pressure along
many food value chains, most significantly on the performance of food
manufacturers and marketers”.
