Due to the shortage of eggs caused by the outbreak of bird flu, Coles has implemented a limit on the number of eggs that customers can buy in each of its stores.
This restriction applies to all of its outlets except for Western Australia.
In response to the shortage of eggs, Coles has implemented a limit on the number of items that customers can buy in each of its stores.
The company said this measure will help maintain the availability of eggs and support its customers.
According to the egg suppliers, the situation is the worst they’ve seen in over two decades.
One supplier noted that the price of eggs could increase significantly within the next couple of weeks.
Ian Wilson, the president of the Western Australia Commercial Egg Producers Association, said that although the farmers in the state have enough supplies to meet the demand, they’re not able to send them to the East.
Although it has been reported that there are shortages at Woolworths and Aldi, the supermarkets aren’t planning on implementing purchase restrictions in the near future.
