Netherlands: opinion on fair food prices now and in the past 2019

Are food prices fairer today than 25 years ago? A considerable share of consumers in the Netherlands seem to think they are not. Roughly half of respondents taking part in this survey stated to believe that food prices today are either less fair or much less fair than in the past. On the other hand, less than 20 percent of survey participants said to believe prices are fairer today.

In comparison to 25 years ago, are food prices today more or less fair?
