Acecook's Price Adjustment for Instant Cup Noodles

Acecook Corporation, headquartered in Suita City, Osaka, has announced an increase in the prices of its instant cup noodle products, effective July 1, 2026. This decision comes as a response to the ongoing rise in raw material and energy costs, as well as increases in logistics and labor expenses.
