Food Price Report 2016 UNIVERSITY OF GUELPH ECONOMIC BRIEF
4
Prepared by
the
Food Institute of the University of Guelph
12/10/2015
"In 2014,the Food Institute of the University of Guelph predicted that overall food prices in 2015 would
rise by up to 3.0%. As stated in our revised report in February 2015, this prediction was based on a
much stronger Canadian dollar versus the American currency. For 2015, overall food price inflationary
patterns were consistent with our predictions. "
I know you said "fresh food", but it is January. It would not be surprising that some prices double around this time. I know that "fresh strawberries" are triple the price where I live.
