“At Stoneleigh, we announced new pricing guardrails applicable to all Co-op own-brand products,” Nisa commercial director Ayaz Alam said.
“These guardrails ensure that the RRPs we recommend are indexed against recent Co-op retail RSPs to help you ensure you remain competitive versus Co-op retail stores.
“We also committed to you that we would review our prices against these guardrails regularly, this means we will routinely respond to price increases and decreases on Co-op lines set by the Co-op.
“The impact of the price changes on Core Essentials, the products we recommend all customers stock is that of the 330 products, 52 will increase in price and 18 decrease.”
He added: “We will continue to review and adjust prices based on these guardrails, so please look out for future emails that will provide advanced notice of future changes.”
