Japan has been hit by the supply chain, Japan has ushered in the ? The fall of the price hike? For this phenomenon of rising prices, there are generally different reasons behind it, to be analyzed according to the specific national conditions.?
The first and foremost reason is because the global epidemic is still spreading and not under complete control, although the new crown of cases is slowly decreasing, but there are still sporadic. As a result of the epidemic, trade between countries will be reduced and the global supply chain between countries will be blocked. Therefore this has a more obvious effect on the prices of the country, and in Japan, there are many commodities. Because of the epidemic, there has been an increase in prices. This is a normal rise in prices for an economy as a whole, because since so many suppliers in the international market are not able to meet the normal demand, it will certainly cause prices to rise.?
So what are the commodities that have gone up in price behind the rise in prices? First of all, for some butter, according to statistics, this is in all the vegetable butter inside the highest price increase, which in the supermarket of a butter, has risen by 12% of the price. For soybeans and other edible oils, raw materials, these raw material prices will rise a lot. Because relatively speaking Japan is an island country, and almost 80% of soybeans are imported from foreign countries, then now due to the epidemic reasons, will cause a shortage of soybean supply. While the price of soybeans is rising, the price of coffee beans is also rising. Due to the lack of supply of raw materials for coffee, there have been many models of coffee that have increased in price, up to 20%. For these raw materials, food, their prices have risen, causing them to rise in price, the main reason is that the supplier supply does not demand.
Not only these raw materials have been subjected to price increases, on the other hand, many prices in Japan's food and beverage industry have also risen. The reason behind this is all related to the unstable supply of raw materials.
