Canadian food suppliers are once again issuing notices to grocery retailers informing them of upcoming price hikes.
The letters signal more price increases will hit grocery stores this fall in a year that has already seen nearly double digit increases in food costs.
In some cases, the higher prices are due to the Canadian Dairy Commission’s approval of a second milk price increase this year, that which will see farm gate milk prices go up about two cents per litre, or 2.5 per cent, on Sept. 1.
