SA Grocery Price Index

How South African supermarket prices are really moving, measured from the thousands of prices Loyalty Hub tracks every day across Woolworths, Shoprite, Pick n Pay, Spar, Checkers, Clicks, Makro. The index starts at 100 in our first tracked month — a value of 110 means the same groceries cost 10% more.

Methodology

Each month we take the median observed price of every product we track. The month-on-month movement is the median price change across products seen in both months (matched pairs, so products entering or leaving the catalogue don't distort the trend), chained from a base of 100. It is not an official inflation statistic — it reflects the shelf prices of the products Loyalty Hub tracks. Free to cite with a link to this page.
