In the article, Sorin Mierlea, the InfoCons President, addressed the Prime Ministerv’s proposed regulations regarding shrinkflation. Shrinkflation is a phenomenon where some retailers offer less product while keeping prices the same. The response of the InfoCons President focuses on the necessity for clearer weight information displayed in larger fonts, while also proposing that products of varying weights should not be grouped together on shelves to prevent misleading pricing tactics.
