Supplier price increases: Pass them on to the sales floor without losing customers

In 2026, 55% of major Ilec manufacturers signed deflationary pricing agreements with French power plants. However, the price increases that were not approved in March are being implemented later in the year, driven by fluctuations in energy, packaging, and raw material costs. Each price surge forces companies to revise thousands of prices within a few days, while customers still perceive food inflation as high. Applying the same adjustment factor across the board is the quickest—and most visible—solution.

This white paper shows how to distribute a supplier price increase on a family-by-family basis rather than applying it as a flat rate: a purchase price that fluctuates throughout the year, price increases that hit store shelves in spurts and not uniformly across all locations, customers who still perceive food inflation as high, four possible responses, and the Egalim requirements that must be verified. Figures verified and dated from 2025 to 2026 (INSEE, Banque de France, DG Trésor, Ilec, OpinionWay).
