>This shows that the EU still has a long way to sufficiently integrate its markets

Austria's high groceries price problem isn't due to a fault of EU market integration, it's due to the cartels that own the retail sector in Austria and milk consumers for all they're worth.

In other words it's a domestic self inflicted problem, that Austria can solve but chooses not to, not an EU problem.
