Food prices are rising at their lowest level for more than a year-and-a-half, figures revealed today.
According to British Retail Consortium statistics, it is shown that the food inflation stood at 3.8% in July, which is a considerable slowdown from the 5.6% increase in prices reported in June. This news confirms a four-month consecutive decline for the inflation level.
The Nielson Shop Price Index, which is used to measure the cost of products across the food retail industry, showed the overall shop price inflation at just 0.5% in July, which is its lowest ever since last December.
