Cost of living: Bakeries

BBC World Service - Business Daily, Cost of living: Bakeries

We explore how the cost of living crisis is affecting bakers from France to Uganda.

As part of our cost of living mini series we take a look at how bakers are coping as the price of grain, dairy and the power needed to heat their ovens, all continue to increase.

In this Business Daily mini series we're exploring how businesses we all use regularly are being affected by the cost of living crisis. This episode looks at how bakers are coping as the price of grain, dairy and the power needed to heat their ovens, all continue to increase. 

Leanna Byrne speaks to bakers in Egypt, France and Uganda – one baker tells us that the price increases she's seeing for ingredients means she should really have doubled her prices. Our French baker tells us the price of butter is a huge issue there and in Egypt we investigate the expense of wheat imports and difficulty sourcing local wheat.
