Starting today, Coles supermarkets in Australia will implement a temporary purchase limit on eggs due to shortages linked to bird flu outbreaks. Customers will be restricted to buying two cartons each at all stores except in Western Australia. The bird flu strain has disrupted the supply chain, leading to fewer eggs being laid. It’s a challenging situation for egg suppliers, with some predicting that the cost of a carton of eggs could potentially triple within the next few weeks. While Aldi and Woolworths have also seen shortages, they do not currently plan to impose purchase limits.
