Vivinavi Los AngelesPrice hikes in Japanese food markets are not good ?.

The prices at markets that claim to offer "passionate prices" and the like are in an "all-you-can-eat" state. In Japan, people seem to be willing to raise prices even by a few percent, but Japanese foodstuffs at this market have doubled in price from a little while ago, or even increased by 100 percent, without hesitation. I guess they are trying to make up for the loss of revenue caused by the Corona disaster, but the fact that the number of shoppers has not decreased even at these prices suggests that sales are much higher than before the Corona disaster and revenue is increasing.
Even for locally manufactured and sold products, which should not be so expensive in terms of transportation costs and raw materials, the local Japanese and Japanese-Americans end up buying them no matter how expensive they are, so I feel that they are setting absurd prices in a state of so-called "hiked prices". ?
Of course, they are relatively modest in raising prices for necessities and prominent products because they would be exposed if they raise prices all at once, but even so, they raise prices many times in a short period of time.
When the store first opened after the acquisition, there were parts where I could see the business attitude of a Japanese company with the concept of cheap sales, but I wonder if they are changing their business attitude to one where they carry everything on a large scale, but the prices are high, but you buy it because you need it anyway ?. ? For those of us who eat mainly Japanese food, I was complaining about the business that makes me want to boycott them, which I cannot do even if I wanted to.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

It has been a while since I have had a serious answer to this question.
I understand very much how angry you are about everything going up in price. It's surprisingly expensive, isn't it?
Of course, I understand that this is a personal opinion and subjective, but I feel that nabeyaki's comments are too baseless to make assumptions.
> Local manufacturing and sales
The domestic transportation costs are also going up very, very high due to the soaring gasoline and labor costs.
Raw materials have also gone up in price for everything we use. I can't tell you how many times the prices have gone up since Corona.
Even though the price of raw materials has increased slightly, the price of packaging and boxes used for products has increased.
> What makes you think that manufacturing and selling locally
should not increase so much in transportation costs and raw materials ? By this logic, how do you interpret the price increase in US-based supermarkets?
> Of course, necessities and prominent products are relatively modest because they would be exposed if they were raised too quickly, but they still raise prices many times in a short period of time.
As far as I know, container ships used to come from China ➔ Japan ➔ and the U.S., but now they come from China ➔ and not via the U.S. and Japan, so container freight rates from Japan temporarily increased more than three times. Although the situation has calmed down somewhat now, there were frequent instances where the shipping costs for the next container ship went up. Also, the cost of trucks to pull containers from ports has increased considerably. I think the price increase in a short period of time is partly due to these circumstances and partly due to fluctuations in exchange rates.
I see it as a consideration that the price was raised gradually through corporate efforts, because raising the price all at once would be a burden on the consumer.
Various vendors and services intervene in the process from production to the actual consumer. Even if each price increase is slight, the end result is a large price increase.
> But I wonder if they are changing their business attitude to "you buy it because you need it anyway ?" ?
I wonder if they are not willing to change their own lifestyle, but not to allow price increases. In the first place, the act of buying Japanese goods in the U.S. itself is not a cost-effective act, so I don't think it can be helped.
In my family, we are trying to get rid of our dependence on Japan, and we are switching to local products if they can be substituted.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)
