The platform PosoKanei.gov.gr is now live, giving consumers the ability to compare prices of products at supermarkets in real time.
The platform will first be presented to Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis at a meeting at the Maximos Mansion. This will be followed by a detailed presentation at 12:30 p.m. by the political leadership of the Ministries of Development and Digital Governance.
The government’s goal is to enhance market transparency, to make everyday shopping easier for consumers, and to boost competition among businesses.
How it works
The platform is available via a mobile app and includes over 8,500 products from all major supermarket chains and from all major categories, such as food, beverages, personal care and cleaning products, baby products, and pet supplies.
The platform will include both brand-name products and private-label products, while the primary focus will be on standardized and packaged products. For now, most fresh products, such as fruits, vegetables, and fresh meats, are excluded from the platform.
In fact, the app also includes a digital shopping cart, where users can add products they’re interested in and see the total cost of that basket at different supermarket chains.
At the same time, PosoKanei.gov.gr will maintain a two-month price history, allowing consumers to verify whether a sale is genuine or if it was preceded by a price increase for the product.
