Billa: Changes to the discount stickers again

The local grocery chain Billa has changed its discount picker policy once again. After the back and forth with the 25 percent discount brands, this time it’s about foods with an imminent expiration date. Instead of before 25 and 50 percent respectively There is now a uniform discount 30 percent pickle.

This was confirmed by the subsidiary of the German Rewe group today and the Upper Austrian news, who were the first to report it. “From now on, only -30 percent ‘food is valuable’ stickers will be used across Austria,” the company announced on Thursday afternoon.

Billa commented on the reasons for the change OÖN as follows: “Our discounts are based on commercial discretion and are intended in particular to sell food at a cheaper price shortly before its expiry date and thus reduce food waste.”
