His “little Rungis”, as he calls it, welcomed fourteen local producers that day on the occasion of the national operation “Origine France”.
“Our cart has taken an average of 15% in one year,” recalled Rudy Carnis as he walked the aisles of the store. Laurent Mesnis cites several products as examples: “The most telling is the 25-litre container of seed oil (sunflower, rapeseed, frying mix). I sold it for €28 in November 2020. It reached €44 in the spring of 2021. It is now sold for €64. The conflict in Ukraine strongly destabilizes oil supplies, which is why the sale of this product is limited to 50 liters per day and per person. »
Other products that have undergone a fairly significant increase: salmon: “It cost €14.99 per kg, today it is €18. »

The can of oil has gone from 28 to 64 €
Butter went from €6 to €8 per kg in a few months. “It doesn’t seem like it, but I use 10 kg a week,” says Rudy Carnis.
“If there were only these increases, we could probably support them”, explains Rudy Carnis. “The problem is that we will also have to bear a 16% increase in the cost of our personnel from April 1, and like everyone else, we are bearing the brunt of the rise in energy prices. It’s a lot. This is why we will have to pass on part of these increases to our customers. »
