The Consumer Protection Service of Ministry of Commerce has released today the results of their recent island-wide survey in the prices of basic items from the large supermarket chains. The survey captures prices of the 2nd May 2011 and includes 540 basic consumer products in 21 categories. Orphanides Supermarkets appear to be the cheapest with the exception of Nicosia and Famagusta districts where Athienitis and Kokkinos supermarkets hold the top positions.

funny… I don’t see LIDL in the survey.
I think they will take 1st place all over.

Kokkinos rules Famagusta (Unofficialy since Lidl wasn’t ckd in the above survey).

The cypriot cunsumers are all victims of the exorbitant prices impose by the big supermarkets. The supermarkets in Cyprus pay peanuts to the poor farmers with postated cheques, payable 3 and 6 months after delivery of the fresh products. What is needed in Cyprus is the introduction of the big giants of Tesco and Asda and half of the supermarkets will close and the rest will have to cut down their prices by at least 30% to 50% if they are to compete.
