- Sainsbury’s chief says grocery inflation not as bad as feared so far
Sainsbury’s CEO Simon Roberts stated that UK grocery inflation has not been as severe as initially feared, with sales boosted by an Aldi price match, hot weather, and World Cup matches. He noted ongoing 'pressure in the system' but suggested inflation could remain below the Food and Drink Federation’s 9% prediction by December.
