Will Government intervention fix our supermarket duopoly?

The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald

The Government is taking aim at the supermarket duopoly with a range of measures designed to increase competition in the sector.   This comes after a Commerce Commission market study showing that supermarket giants Woolworths and Foodstuffs were making hundreds of millions of dollars in excess profits.  So will the Government’s measures help make grocery shopping more affordable, and what do the current supermarket giants have to say about this?  Today, NZ Herald Wellington business editor Jenee Tibshraeny joins Damien to dig through the details of the big supermarket changes.  Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
