In response to rising food prices, Italian food company Barilla is planning a price cut of 7-13% across a range of products including pasta, biscuits, snacks, and bread from February 1 to December 31, 2024. This initiative is aimed at supporting Italian families who have been impacted by an average food price increase of 9.8% in 2023. Additionally, Barilla is investing in supply chains, production sites, and new technologies, with a planned investment of 1 billion euros over the next five years, half of which will be allocated to the domestic market.
