Tesco has come out on top as Ireland's most popular supermarket, a study has confirmed. It also revealed that grocery inflation is at a 14-year high.
The study, carried out by Kantar, showed that despite shoppers opting for cheaper products in an effort to reduce cost, the average price paid for each item has increased by 6.3%.
Senior Retail analyst with Kantar, Emer Healy said: “We are seeing rising costs on many fronts, and shoppers’ weekly grocery bill is no exception to the rule. Food and drink prices are continuing to climb, and the impact of this on shopping budgets is now unavoidable for many consumers.”
