Supermarket Prices of Food Items in Trinidad & Tobago (December 2016)

As part of its mandate to ensure fair pricing in the marketplace, the Consumer Affairs Division of the Ministry of Trade and Industry has been monitoring the prices of items at supermarkets in Trinidad and in Tobago. In December 2016, the Consumer Affairs Division (CAD), Trinidad conducted a price survey of one hundred and sixteen (116) selected food items across thirty – nine (39) supermarkets in twenty (20) areas of Trinidad. A similar exercise was conducted by the Consumer Affairs Unit (CAU) of the Tobago House of Assembly at seven (7) supermarkets in Tobago. The selected products, which impact consumers across all income groups, were derived from a basket of goods survey conducted by the Consumer Affairs Division of the Ministry of Trade and Industry in 2014. The Division continues to use this basket of selected goods to monitor prices on a monthly basis.
