If, in England I can buy a can of beer for 80p in a corner shop or 50p in a supermarket – I get that. Suppliers deals, savings at sale. The corner shop pays a bit more earns a bit more to cover the costs of running the shop.
If the same can wil soon cost £1.30 as a minimum in Scotland. Who gets the profit?
If it’s all tax how does that work?
Do the alcohol companies just massively put their prices up to the retailers and make huge returns?
Do corner shops charge more than minimum or do they pay less tax?
How does it work?
In: Economics
Retailers and distributors will make more money off of the extra cost.
This is minimum pricing and not taxation.
