45 h. ago Loblaw closing No Name discount grocery stores in Ontario after just a year

Loblaw Companies Ltd. is slowly winding down its ultra-discount No Name grocery store program, with two of the three pilot locations in Ontario now closed or slated to shut down just over a year after they first opened. The stores were originally launched in September 2024 and gave shoppers access to even lower prices than the company's existing discount chains, like No Frills. The concept aimed to reduce operating costs through shorter store hours, a smaller assortment of products, limited marketing, no refrigeration, and fewer weekly deliveries. At the time, the company said that the stores would help customers save up to 20 per cent on everyday essentials; however, it looks like the concept didn't exactly land with consumers, as its reduced operating costs meant shoppers would have to shop elsewhere for refrigerated items like dairy or fresh meat products. The bare-bones stores carried just 1,300 products, compared to the 7,000 items typically carried in sm...

No, you haven't been imagining it: your grocery bill may have gotten more expensive recently, at least according to Loblaw's September Food Inflation report, which states that food prices have remained above the general rate of inflation due to external pressures.The report, released on Sept. 30, shows that food inflation in Canada rose 3.5 per cent in August compared to the overall Consumer Price Index (CPI) at 1.9 per cent."Much of this gap is tied to broader global factors — such as commodity volatility, higher transportation and energy costs in the supply chain, and weather-related disruptions affecting produce and meat," reads the report.One of these weather-related disruptions is due to the unusually low rainfall seen in the Atlantic provinces, Quebec, and parts of Ontario. Due to this, Loblaw said that crops like corn, soybeans, blueberries, and root vegetables were "stressed during critical growth phases," which in turn reduced yields, ...
