Overseas Network, September 30. According to Japan's Fuji TV news on September 30, Japan will usher in a "peak price increase" from October. Only food, beverages, etc. will have 6,500 kinds of commodities, ranging from ham, sausage, egg yolk. Sauce, bottled drinks and many other common products.
The previous price hike in Japan was in August, and the price increase in October will be 2.5 times that of August, with more than 20,000 kinds of commodities.
After the statistics of the Imperial Data Bank, it is believed that "most beverages and food in Japan will increase in price".
Among them, the price increase of alcohol led by beer is the most obvious.
Four major Japanese liquor companies have raised the prices of their beer and canned fruit wine by 10%.
Many Japanese citizens rushed to the supermarket to stock up before October.
The price hike has also spread to the catering industry.
The "KURA Sushi" chain will increase the price of each plate of sushi from 110 yen (about 5.4 yuan) to 115 yen (about 5.6 yuan).
Yoshinoya raised the price of a medium bowl of beef rice from 426 yen (about RMB 21) to 448 yen (about RMB 22).
Fuji TV said that the price hikes first affected gasoline and electrical appliances, and now they are gradually spreading to the food industry.
The most direct reason for the surge in prices is that the Ukrainian crisis has led to a shortage of commodities, and the prices of raw materials and various resources remain high.
