RTTNews reports that data published by the British Retail Consortium showed that UK shop prices declined at a slower pace in October.
Shop prices slid 0.4 percent year-on-year in October after a 0.5 percent drop in the previous month.
Food prices grew 0.5 percent annually, the biggest annual growth since November 2020.
Meanwhile, non-food prices decreased 1 percent as ongoing global shortages of materials and supply issues with logistics and shipping continue to put upward cost pressures on products such as furniture.
