Shop price inflation eased in April, driven by widespread discounting from retailers, though experts warn the full impact of the Middle East conflict is yet to be felt by consumers.
Overall shop prices rose by 1 per cent compared to April last year, a decrease from 1.2 per cent in March and below the three-month average of 1.1 per cent, according to data from the British Retail Consortium (BRC) and NIQ.
