Description:

New Zealand First is proposing to break up one of the country’s biggest supermarket players, Foodstuffs, into two competing nationwide cooperatives. The move is being pitched as a way to increase competition in a sector long criticised for high prices and limited choice. 

To unpack what that could actually mean in practice, Producer Pranuja spoke with Emeritus Professor of Economics at the University of Auckland, Tim Hazledine.
