Retailers Walmart and Costco have agreed to join Canada’s grocery code of conduct.
A statement from Canada’s federal, provincial and territorial ministers of agriculture confirmed that “all major retailers” in the country, including “Loblaws, Sobeys, and Metro, and most recently, Walmart and Costco”, had now endorsed the code of practice.
The ministers added: “This is a positive step towards bringing more fairness, transparency, and predictability to Canada’s grocery supply chain and for consumers.”
In a statement on X, federal Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food Lawrence MacAulay said this was “good news for the sector and for competition”.
