Retailers accused of ignoring soaring production costs to keep prices low, with Aldi singled out as leading way

The major supermarket chains are ignoring the impact of higher raw material and freight costs because they want to offer the “cheapest bananas on the market”, according to a joint statement from Latin American producers and exporter associations.
