"Carrefour Halts Sales of PepsiCo Products Amid Rising Price Dispute in France"
French retailer Carrefour has announced it will stop selling PepsiCo products, including Pepsi, Lay's, and 7up, due to what it calls "unacceptable price increases." This decision is part of a broader conflict between retailers and food manufacturers over pricing amidst inflation. Carrefour has been vocal in its efforts to combat price rises, even launching a "shrinkflation" campaign previously. The move reflects the tense price negotiations that are exacerbated by inflation, with France's regulated retail sector adding another layer of complexity. PepsiCo, which had planned modest price increases following strong demand, has not commented on Carrefour's decision.
