We’ve been seeing price increases in every area of life for some time now. In Austria, the rate of inflation in November was 10.6% according to estimates from the Statistics Austria. In Germany, inflation increased by 10% in month-on-month comparison. At European level too, the Harmonised Indices of Consumer Prices (HICP) stood at +11.1% in November 2022. Rising costs for commodities, in the areas of shipping and packaging and, most notably, for energy, are now having an effect on RINGANA’s products.
RINGANA PRICE ADJUSTMENTS SIGNIFICANTLY BELOW CURRENT INFLATION RATE
For the above reasons, RINGANA is forced to implement its annual price increase with effect from 03.01.2023. “On average, we have to increase the prices of our core range by around 6.1%. That means we’ve been able to stay significantly below the rate of inflation, and are only passing on as much of the massive cost increases along the value chain to our customers as is absolutely necessary. Each product is being individually analysed, always with the aim of keeping the price rise as low as possible,” is the assurance from Clemens Taschée (Director Finance).
“By adjusting our prices, we can continue to maintain the highest standards for our core values of FRESH, EXCELLENT, TRENDSETTING for all of our products, with no compromises,” adds Corina Ronge (Director Intern. Partner Relations).
SUMMARY OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTS
The new prices will take effect on 3 January 2023 (12 noon) and will be shown in our price list. The latest updated prices and rates are shown in the various languages in Downloads in your Online Office on ringana.com.
