Household flour price increase from September 19:39 on June 19 at a major flour milling company due to unseasonable weather
Due to the increase in the price of imported wheat, major flour mills decided to raise the price of household flour from September.
Nisshin Foods Co., Ltd. and Nippon Flour Milling Co., Ltd. are household flours such as soft flour used in tempura etc. and strong flour used in bread etc. I will.
It is said that each company will raise the price for the first time in 1 year and 8 months since January last year, and each will contain 1 kilogram of the main product, 4 yen for soft flour and 3 yen for strong flour.
The reasons for the reasons are that the international trade prices of wheat increased due to the dryness of Australia and the bad weather in the United States and Canada, the price of imported wheat sold by the government to flour mills was raised, and the labor costs in Japan were increased. This is because the logistics costs have risen.
We usually raise prices from around July, but due to the influence of the new coronavirus, we will delay the price increase this time.
