President Donald Trump announced that regional supermarket chain Giant Eagle will lower prices on more than 300 products this summer through Labor Day. In a Truth Social post, Trump praised the grocer for answering his call to reduce costs for working families, comparing the move to similar actions by Walmart. Giant Eagle had already lowered prices on key staples like beef and American cheese on July 9 to boost customer value perception. The announcement comes as Kroger is in the process of acquiring Giant Eagle for approximately $1.65 billion, consisting of about $1.25 billion in cash and the assumption of roughly $400 million in liabilities.
