Carrefour Unveils €30 Shopping Basket In Spain Following Price Cut Proposal
Carrefour is to sell Spanish consumers a basket of 30 basic goods for €30, the company has announced, days after Spain announced it was considering asking major retailers to offer special price packages to mitigate inflation.

In August, Carrefour said it was freezing the price of 100 products in France, from tinned sardines to rice and washing up liquid
“The current situation requires agile and effective measures,” commented Alexandre de Palmas, executive director of Carrefour Spain. “In these times, where each act of purchase is more valuable than ever, Carrefour is responding to its customers. We are working to offer savings solutions that protect the purchasing power of families in Spain.”
The government’s announcement was met with criticism by Spanish business groups and some politicians, who view the move as the government engaging in price intervention.
French retailer Carrefour – the second-largest grocery chain in Spain after dominant Mercadona – said it hoped to bolster the purchasing power of Spanish families. The exclusive basket offer will include tinned food, pasta, oil and coffee among other products. In August, Carrefour said it was freezing the price of 100 products in France, from tinned sardines to rice and washing up liquid.
