End of year survey 2023

Health Self-Awareness Dominates This Year’s New Year’s Food Resolution Survey

HALIFAX, December 18, 2023 — The year 2024 is almost upon us and it is time to reflect on what has happened this past year and anticipate what lies ahead. Food inflation affected most food categories this year, which is why the last twelve months have been challenging for Canadians both at the grocery store and at restaurants. Canada’s Food Price Report 2024 was recently released by Dalhousie University, the University of Guelph, the University of Saskatchewan, and the University of British Columbia, forecasting that the average Canadian family could spend up to $701 more on groceries in 2024, compared to this year. The Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University, in partnership with Caddle, is releasing a new report on what Canadians intend to do in the new year, with food and with other aspects of their lives related to food.
