Ethical Consumer did an in-depth report covering the main 19 chains in January 2011, and the score ranking data is kept live and up to date – http://www.ethicalconsumer.org/BuyersGuides/Food/Supermarkets.aspx

A product by product analysis hasn’t been done because it would be hugely complicated and expensive, and no single agency would be able to complete it. It’s much easier for us as consumers to look up the things that we buy.

If someone could tell me where to find a detailed product-by-product analysis of the food supply chains for the supermarkets, that would be extremely useful. Why has such a document not been produced? Any information on food-supply chains would be appreciated – although I find it extremely unsatisfactory that such information is not public knowledge.

It is my right as a consumer to know where my food came from so that I can make informed choices about what to buy.

My daughter explained to me that special offers in the supermarkets give the customer good value but this is taken from the farmers profits and not the supermarkets

I’ve amended their entry accordingly. I’d like to keep this as up to date as possible, so thanks for asking!

I was wondering where this infromation came from because i cant find anuthing that agrees with this
