In March 2025, the inflation rate for food prices in the United Kingdom was measured at three percent. A period of continuous deflation between March 2015 and January 2017 preceded a return to a sustained rise in the cost of food from February 2017 onwards. While food prices were deflating between September 2020 and July 2021, they started increasing rapidly from August 2021 to March 2023. The inflation rate started to decline from April 2023. Inflation rate and consumer price indexInflation is commonly measured via the consumer price index, which illustrates changes to prices paid by consumers for a representative basket of goods and services. An annualized percentage change in the price index constitutes a measure of inflation. In order to maintain an inflation rate at a stable level, to enable the general public and businesses to plan their spending, the Government set a two percent inflation target for the Bank of England. The discounter boom The increase in food prices in the United Kingdom has shifted shopping behaviours amongst consumers. Value is now key and shoppers are changing their retailer loyalties. Aldi, the German discount supermarket retailer, overtook Morrisons as Great Britain's fourth largest supermarket in September of 2022. Aldi's market share reached double digits for the first time in April 2023. It is yet to be seen if Lidl, Aldi's discounter competitor, can also continue to rise up in the ranks and eventually take over Morrisons as the fifth leading food retailer.

August 2022 update

1. The updated database has monthly prices from over 400 supermarkets across six chains (all Shufersal stores, plus ~20 per chain for the other chains), from March 2022-August 2022. Before march there is a steady increase in the number of stores.
2. The current database has combined all the supermarket chains, which required adding two columns - 'ChainName' is the supermarket chain, and 'store_code' is a concatenation of the store_id and the beginning of the chain name, to solve the duplicate store_ids.
3. A new table was constructed to try and identify the manufacturers of each product, given the significant discrepancies in the retailers' reporting. This table ("manufacturer_finder") has identified the likely supplier of around half of the products in the database, and can be used to track specific suppliers (producers/importers).

This dataset was created to analyze changes in prices in the Israeli grocery retail market. It was created based on the files retailers are legally required to upload, available here: https://www.gov.il/he/departments/legalInfo/cpfta_prices_regulations

The data is not complete and downloads increased gradually. Beginning in May 2020 there are sporadic files for three specific Shufersal stores. Starting in November 2021 Downloads increased, ~20-50 stores downloaded at various times from Shufersal, and ~5-10 stores downloaded from a few other retailers.

Different table for each retailer. The table "snifim" specifies the names for stores for Shufersal (in the main table you can find store_id which can be joined to the names).

Description of columns in the Prices tables: Filename - original file name (without the xml extension) store_id - ID of the store upload_date - date of file download. Upload dates before 2020 - unclear what they are, probably of stores which shut down.
PriceUpdateDate - Last date of price change of the item. ItemCode - a unique ID of the item. ItemName - name. ManufacturerName - manufacturer. These data are messy. ManufactureCountry - country of production. ManufacturerItemDescription - similar to ItemName UnitQty - unit of measure Quantity - quantity. UnitOfMeasure - also unit of measure ItemPrice - price (NIS) UnitOfMeasurePrice - price divided by quantity AllowDiscount - boolean/dummy variable.

Supplementary data can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LYyCt3BTJ-QInja-4iN1vqZ91xV6TAwhywgJxecSOkM/edit?usp=sharing Including: - Analysis of suppliers - different labels associated with each supplier - A table linking Shufersal stores with their store_id - A table with details on how many price files (stores) were downloaded each date.

Supermarkets have maintained stable volume-driven business strategies amid a pricing environment that has been in the spotlight. Conflict in the Middle East, avian flu outbreaks and other inflationary pressures have driven prices up, with many stores passing on these costs to consumers. While consumers are paying more for groceries and upstream suppliers are seeing their margins shrink, supermarkets Coles and Woolworths have maintained relatively stable profit margins, among the highest in the world. The continued expansion of Aldi and Amazon has forced the two established industry giants to shift gears recently to remain price-competitive on both the physical store and online service fronts, launching short-term price discounting initiatives. These supermarket giants also rely on loyalty programs and promotions. Coles and Woolworths have displayed interest in data analytics, strengthening their relationships with analytics data giants like Palantir to optimise their marketing and operational processes. The ACCC's landmark supermarkets inquiry, while not finding evidence of price gouging, identified 20 key recommendations that would ensure a more sustainable market and avoid oligopolistic exploitation. Supermarket and grocery revenue rose significantly following the COVID-19 outbreak. A combination of panic buying, along with the suspension of many specials and promotions in supermarkets, boosted grocery turnover at the beginning of the period, spiking revenue for the two years through 2020-21. This high benchmark at the start of the period has resulted in an industry correction and an annualised revenue contraction of 0.4% to $144.3 billion over the five years through 2025-26. Revenue is estimated to climb 0.4% in 2025-26, reflecting the price-driven industry growth that falling tobacco sales have offset. Supermarkets and grocery stores are set to perform well, with industry revenue slated to climb at an annualised 1.5% through 2030-31 to $155.6 billion. Population growth will remain a key growth factor that stores rely on, as many continue a volume-driven business approach to generating revenue. Should the transparency-related recommendations from the ACCC's inquiry be implemented, some price-driven growth may be curtailed. Eventually, when inflationary pressures subside and consumer sentiment returns to a positive level, supermarkets and grocers will be well-positioned to take advantage of consumer appetite for value-added and premium goods. Strong growth in online sales is set to continue.
