■Food prices rise this month: over 1,300 items, over 1,000 for the first time in five months
More than 1,300 food items, including frozen foods and ice cream, will see price increases this month, exceeding 1,000 for the first time in five months.
According to a survey conducted by Teikoku Databank targeting 195 major food manufacturers in Japan, 1,392 food items will see price increases this month, exceeding 1,000 for the first time in five months.
By item, frozen foods, or "processed foods," which all major companies raised their prices at once, were the most common, with 757 items, accounting for more than half of the total. In addition, 169 items of "confectionery," such as ice cream and chocolate products, and 135 items of "alcoholic beverages and beverages," such as whiskey and coffee drinks, saw price increases.
Research companies say that the price increases are due to rising raw material prices due to abnormal weather, as well as increased costs for logistics and packaging materials.
Meanwhile, the number of food items that have experienced or are scheduled to experience price increases between January and November this year is 11,872, roughly 40% of the number during the same period last year.
Regarding this situation, a research company points out that although the momentum for price increases has weakened compared to last year, the proportion of price increases due to factors such as rising labor costs following the minimum wage hike is gradually increasing, and combined pressure for price increases remains high.
