Wake Up To Money looks at how we can ensure fairness when it comes to who sets the price of our food.

Sean Farrington speaks to Lynsey Harley from Modern Standard Coffee roastery based in Fife who supplies to supermarkets, and to Christine Tacon, a former Groceries Code Adjudicator - they’re the regulator set up by the Government to make sure retailers are treating suppliers fairly.
