KOKUYO raises prices of 20 stationery items due to soaring steel prices
食品やガソリンの値上げが相次ぐなか、文具メーカーのコクヨは来年1月1日からノートやハサミなどを値上げすると発表しました
As food and gasoline prices continue to rise, stationery manufacturer KOKUYO has announced that it will increase the prices of notebooks, scissors, etc. from January 1st next year.
The prices will increase for 20 items including binder-type notebooks.
The average price increase is 8%, with a binder-type notebook (968 yen) increasing by 66 yen to 1,034 yen.
This is the first time in two and a half years that KOKUYO has increased the price of stationery since July 2019.
This is due to the soaring price of steel materials used in binder metal fittings, scissors, staplers, etc.
Kokuyo also announced that it will raise the prices of office furniture products at the same time.
Regarding the price increase, KOKUYO explained, ``We have determined that it will be difficult to raise the price through corporate efforts alone, so we will continue to provide a stable supply of products.’’
