The Procuraduría Federal del Consumidor (PROFECO), or Office of the Federal Prosecutor for the Consumer, continually monitors the price fluctuations and variations of the Mexican basic food basket, which includes 24 different products that are considered basic for every household.

As of January 2024, the lowest prices for the basic basket were found predominantly in Walmart and Walmart-owned supermarkets, with the two cheapest ones being in the states of Chihuahua and Puebla. The lowest price of $745 Mexican pesos was at the Walmart Sector Reloj, Chihuahua, followed by $776.2 Mexican pesos at Bodega Aurrera (Walmart's discount chain) in Puebla.
At the other end of the spectrum, Mexican supermarket chain Chedraui operated the top two most expensive stores for the basic food basket.
