Bread prices unlikely to drop soon says bakers
Bread price outlook remains firm as bakers warn only a flour price drop of at least 44 per barrel can ease costs. Eugene Tipp, president of the National Retail Workers' union, told the Wheat Association of Baking Industries that high production costs and delayed wheat shipments will push prices higher. A 20 percent rise in bread consumption could save consumers about 200 dollars annually, he suggested, noting small bakers now earn about half their former profits.
