Abstract: The objective of the research reported in this paper was to develop a model that explains food price variation among urban markets. The principal hypotheses was that specific elements of market structure as well as basic supply and demand variables are causa}ly linked to food prices in grocery stores and that inclusion of only concentration measures could produce specification bias.
