Back to newsGreece has launched a new consumer app called "posokanei" (meaning "how much does it cost"), designed to let shoppers compare prices in real time between Greek stores and equivalent markets across the European Union. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced the tool, stating that persistently high prices in Greece relative to other EU countries can no longer be accepted.
For tourists visiting Crete, the app offers a practical way to gauge whether prices at local shops, supermarkets, or markets are in line with broader European standards. Visitors can use it before purchasing groceries, household goods, or everyday items to check if they are paying a fair price. The app is available in Greece and reflects ongoing government pressure on retailers to keep consumer prices competitive.
