Egg farmer raises prices for first time in seven years over supply chain issues

An egg farm in Massachusetts increased prices for the first time in seven years after supply chain issues affected it “in every way imaginable,” according to the manager.

“It’s not just shortages in grain and labor – we’re also experiencing trucking increases, packaging increases, fuel increases,” Country Hen General Manager Bob Beauregard  told Fox News. “It’s not something that I like to say or want to say, but obviously we have to increase our prices in order to cover for all of those shortages.”

“It’s a challenge,” he continued.

Egg prices continued to rise sharply, increasing by .4% from September to October after rising 3.3% the month prior, November’s Consumer Price Index showed.

Food prices climbed 5.4% over the past 12 months.- READ MORE
