Listen "ICYMI - Why Groceries Cost So Much: Inside the Power Struggle Between Brands and Retailers"
Episode Synopsis
Why are grocery prices still climbing when inflation is cooling? Retail analyst Bruce Winder joins Shane Hewitt to break down the real story behind food costs — and who’s profiting most. Bruce explains how consumer packaged goods giants like Procter & Gamble and Pepsi wield pricing power that grocery stores simply can’t match. With CPG companies making four times the profit per dollar compared to retailers, the imbalance reveals why checkout prices remain stubbornly high. The conversation digs into razor-thin grocery margins, inflation pressure, and the quiet corporate tug-of-war shaping every receipt. GUEST: Bruce Winder brucewinder.com Originally aired on 2025-10-27
