Question

  • What options, if any, is she considering to reduce grocery prices?

Answered by

Hon Nicola Willis

List MP · National Party · Acting Minister of Commerce and Consumer Affairs (Grocery Sector)

Answer

I have been focused on improving competition in the grocery sector to ensure New Zealand consumers are not paying too much for groceries. I have progressed changes to make it easier and faster for companies to enter and grow in the sector and continue to take advice on other ways of improving competition.
