With high inflation, price research gains even more importance. Every dollar saved counts. A survey carried out by Proteste, the Brazilian Consumer Protection Association, compared prices between supermarkets in the main capitals of the country.
Supermarkets rotate, promote promotions, meat week, vegetable week, hygiene week and so on. A wholesaler, for example, tends to have more affordable prices than supermarkets and hypermarkets, but it is not for all products.
The bargaining power is greater, as we buy more volume. This gives us a much better condition to present to the consumer.
From the items in the basic food basket, products were chosen between foods (rice, beans, coffee, eggs, meat - or chicken, as an alternative - and milk), hygiene items (toilet paper and toothpaste) and cleaning items (soap powder and all-purpose cleaner).
In the app, the consumer will be able to view 2 different hypermarkets, with the best prices of the desired product and still view, just drag your finger in the two different supermarkets. It will be possible to compare the prices charged in stores and indicate the cheapest value.
Putting food on the table has become more expensive. Since the beginning of the pandemic, the headlines have been high in the prices of meat, eggs, coffee and interference in the economy that have made the Brazilian dish more expensive.
First, the rise in commodities, which are the staples of food and production, such as grains and meat. This is because the companies that produce this in Brazil have international participation and with the devaluation of the real, products have become more expensive.
Then, there was high international demand, a reflection of the pandemic. European countries, for example, were unable to meet domestic demand with the production stoppages caused by the pandemic and, with this, the search for international products increased. Brazil, in turn, decided to invest in exports, where the product was paid at a better price. This meant that the remaining domestic production did not keep up with the demand. With fewer products on the shelves, but with high demand, the result was high prices
