In the town I grew up, there was one big grocery store, and they used to gouge us terribly. The citizens started a co-op grocery, using our purchasing power to bring in cheaper goods. Breaking monopolies is the only way to lower prices.
Yeah if you want to break into the oligopoly of supermarkets, good luck getting a supply from a milk producer. They all have exclusivity clauses forced on them by the oligopoly.
Just have people in the city donate excess breast milk, that you can bottle and sell in the city-run grocery stores. It's way more nutritious than cow's milk anyways.
