Consumers in Greece pay five times more for essential food items compared to other Europeans, verifying the accuracy of Eurostat’s most official data about the high cost of living in Greece, in November 2023.
Despite the government handing out fines and imposing caps on margin profits, businesses continue to overprice products using geopolitical upheavals, supply chain issues and energy prices as an excuse.
