Average prices survey of selected products - food and beverages - time series

Survey of Average Consumer Prices of Food (preliminary monthly one-time field survey) will be terminated at the end of year 2025. Information about monthly average prices are available in table 'Average consumer prices of selected goods'. These data are calculated from 'scanner data' (data from cash registers of retail chains) and are the basis for calculation of monthly price indices of consumer prices.

Starting from January 2019, the structure of published data changed. Due to the gradual implementation of administrative "scanner" data from supermarkets chains into the calculation of the consumer price index, only nationwide average prices are newly published for a narrower selection of representatives. The quoted prices are only approximate.
