Japanese companies predict that over 10,000 types of food will increase in price by 2025.

Golden Ten Data reported on February 28 that the Imperial Database of Japan released a forecast on the 28th that more than 10,000 kinds of food prices will increase in price in 2025. According to statistics, as of August last year, 10,797 varieties of food companies announced price increases. In addition to the increase in the price of raw materials, it is also affected by the rise of logistics and labor costs, and the price increase momentum may exceed that of 2024. A total of 12,520 food items will increase in price throughout 2024. The head of Imperial Database predicts that with the “price increase fatigue” of consumers, although the sales of some goods are declining, the trend of price increases will continue.
