The Rema 1000 chain of stores has been at the top of the list of stores with the lowest food prices for a long time. This trend continued for a long time and it could be said that this brand had no equal in this respect.
However, research and price reports from the last quarter show that Kiwi and Extra beat it. The research was conducted by Enhver.no. It is worth noting, however, that not all products are taken into account in such a report. As it turns out, Kiwi has been offering customers special discount vouchers for a long time. What do we know more?
Price differences are small…
“Rema remained at the top of our rankings for a very long time, despite the fact that Kiwi has become an equally cheap chain in recent years. In recent months, the Extra chain has started fighting in the price war, which is visible in the latest ranking.
However, it should be emphasized that the price differences between the three networks are very small. " provides Ystaas in an interview with Nettavisen.
What do the individual networks say to this?
How do representatives of these companies comment on this list?
When the differences in the prices of the three chains once again close to zero, we can conclude with a high degree of probability that the fact that we are in third place is just a coincidence. The most surprising thing is that Kiwi with purchase prices lower than ours by up to 15 percent, is not much cheaper than us.
If Rema 1000 had such price discounts when purchasing products, we would certainly offer our customers even lower prices. " - emphasizes one of Rema 1000 managers.
Kristine Aakvaag Arvin, Communications Manager at Kiwi, believes the result of the ranking is well deserved.
“It is obvious that price tests show only a small part of the stores' offer. However, the fact that the Kiwi has been winning all the tests for some time is not accidental."
