Japan Survey Shows Record Worries Over Prices and Food

Sarakhon Report

Households cut back as real wages lag

A Cabinet Office survey found anxiety over prices and dissatisfaction with household “food situations” near record highs. Families report trading down on brands, embracing value packs, and postponing big buys as food inflation outpaces headline rates.

Policy debate gathers pace

Economists say subsidy rollbacks and weak real income growth are squeezing consumption. Retailers pivot to private labels to protect volumes. The findings will feed into debates on taxes, social security and the Bank of Japan’s policy calculus.
