A Belfast shop owner is warning consumers that food prices will likely increase even further over the coming months due to rising energy, commodity and fuel costs.
Chris O'Reilly has spoken to Belfast Live about how increased costs will hit customers as they see key food items such as baked goods, poultry and dairy products increase in price, with certain items being more affected than others.
The Ormeau Road Mace owner says in the past year some of his suppliers have increased their costs three times, something that has normally only happened once a year or every other year, and believes that they are likely to increase them further in the coming months.
