As the winter season approaches, the question of food prices becomes relevant. In order to understand what they are currently, we compared the prices of well-known retailers for various products.
Five store chains were selected: “Maxima”, which has the largest turnover in Latvia, “Rimi”, which occupies the 2nd place, “LaTs” and “Mego”, which are Latvian stores, and “Aibe”, which is owned by Lithuanians.
Several food products were selected for comparison: “Baltais” yogurt, “Philadelphia” cream cheese, “Snickers” ice cream, “Nescafe” coffee, “Tymbark” juice and “Grandma” dumplings.
Both “Maxima” and “LaTs” stores have offers that provide discounts for customer card holders. “Maxima” goods with a customer card are more expensive than “LaTā” without a card. Some products, for example cream cheese “Philadelphia” in the “LaTs” store without a discount, cost the same as “Maxima” with a discount card. Also, compared to what is offered by “Maximas”, a greater variety of products is possible in the “LaTs” store.
The graph shows the price differences for one product in several stores. It can be seen that the boiled sausage “Sviestmaižu” is the cheapest in the store “LaTs”, “Aibe” sells it for 10 euro cents more. The highest price is in the “Rimi” store. When it comes to roast chicken “Ķekava”, it can be seen that the low price leader is always “LaTs”, on the contrary, the highest price is in the store “Aibe” – EUR 5.55. However, coffee is the most expensive in the “Rimi” store – if you are not a customer card holder, its price is EUR 9.99, the lowest price is always in “LaTs” stores.
It was noticed that the stores “LaTs” and “Aibe” have a large selection of products with matching discounts. Comparing them, it is observed that the discount price for only one product – the “Kristine” cake – is the same in both stores. Of course, it should be added that if the customer has a “LaTs” Friend card, then the cake costs less – EUR 9.99. The other products, both with and without the “LaTs” customer card, are cheaper than in the “Aibe” store.
When comparing the prices, it becomes clear that “LaTs” is the most profitable of the 5 stores considered. There you will find not only bigger discounts, but also the opportunity to get more benefits using the “LaTs” Friend Card.
