From FoodProfessor: A face-saving code -- for the food industry cdnpoli

Play Video

It all started a few years ago with the announcement of Michael Medline, Sobeys’ big boss, who said at the Empire Club in Toronto that enough is enough. It was 2020, when the major stores including Walmart, Loblaws, Costco, Metro and Sobeys were abusing their power by introducing all kinds of fees to their suppliers in a brutally random way.From our newsroom to your inbox at noon, the latest headlines, stories, opinion and photos from the Toronto Sun.

Grocers have now begun to realize that there might be a problem. Major grocery chains have had a lot of power, maybe a little too much. The famous dispute between Frito-Lay and Loblaws last year exposed the problem to the public. It was ugly, very ugly. Marie-Claude Bibeau, the federal Minister of Agriculture, supported by Andre Lamontagne, Quebec’s Minister of Agriculture, took the lead by creating a working committee to develop a code of conduct for the industry, to give Canada’s food processors a chance to be heard. Since then, the project has really become the responsibility of Lamontagne and Quebec. The project will establish a code that will help the industry, but above all, consumers.

FoodProfessor Self entitlement is the key factor in any enterprise. Add the fact that big stores have been getting away with controlling prices better than a mafia operation, and consumers are abused 100%. I don't believe the system going to change anytime soon.
