Feletti showed them the results of compliance with the freezing, after 30 inspections, where it was observed that the greatest problem was due to the fact that the products were supplied and well marked, but with a price higher than that contained in resolution 1050. They were very few cases where there were shortages, since beyond the initial “noise” that the foodstuffs made in the first days of the freezing, currently all supply.
From the supermarket chain they promised to review the survey and this Tuesday deliver a response regarding the implementation failures. Supplier shortages are not a problem for supermarkets, since they can report it in the early registration systems. As for prices, the Government can check it very easily since at 6:30 in the morning the supermarkets load it in the SEPA (electronic price advertising system).
Association
In this way, two weeks after the implementation Maximum Prices, The Government ensures that it has the presence of the large supermarket chains present throughout the country, grouped under the United Supermarkets Association (ASU). At the federal level, Carrefour, Cencosud and ChangoMore have a presence in most of the provinces, while Coto and Day they have most of their business in Greater Buenos Aires.
Slopes
What remains pending is compliance in wholesalers, which would guarantee the arrival of 20 thousand local businesses, such as warehouses, kiosks, Chinese supermarkets and self-services, which account for more than half of consumption in the country. Although the wholesalers promised to bring prices back to October 1, entities grouped in local businesses assure that, as the program is set out, it is “impossible” to comply. For this reason, as this newspaper learned, supermarkets expect an increase in sales, with a “smaller margin” of profit. What they observe is a modification in the price gap, where historically the traditional channel was cheaper, while after a year and a half of maximum prices with resolution 100, and now again the same policy, the price gap it is an average 30% cheaper for the modern channel. Thus, the weight of the basket of Care Prices in consumption rose 9.6% in the accumulated of the year, according to the consulting firm Scentia.
