British shoppers buy picnic foods in heatwave
During a recent heatwave in the UK, consumers increased spending on picnic foods like potato salad, olives, and frozen treats, leading to a slowdown in grocery price inflation. Grocery prices rose by 2.1% in the four weeks to August 9, the slowest increase in nearly two years, with a higher proportion of sales coming from promotions.
