Maddy summaryThis bill requires large grocery suppliers (those with over $6 billion in annual sales) to offer the same pricing terms to all retailers buying similar volumes of covered goods (like packaged foods, excluding alcohol and gasoline). It mandates that suppliers disclose anonymized pricing terms to smaller grocers within 14 days of a request, ensuring transparency about deals offered to major chains. The law prohibits suppliers from refusing sales to smaller retailers based on store type (e.g., convenience stores vs. supermarkets) if it creates unfair price differences. It directly affects small independent grocers and their suppliers, aiming to prevent large retailers from leveraging buying power to charge smaller competitors higher prices for the same products.
