McDonald's limits fries portions in Japan due to supply issues
Fast food chain McDonald's is selling only small portions of fries in Japan for a week due to delivery problems. From December 24 to 30, portion sizes will be limited to avoid further shortages, the company said. The import of potatoes had been delayed - due to flooding at the port of Vancouver in Canada and general logistics problems caused by the Corona crisis. To compensate, efforts are being made to import by air, it added. About 2,900 McDonald's fast-food restaurants in Japan are affected.
