Tesco follows other supermarkets in rationing eggs
Tesco has become the latest supermarket to ration the amount of eggs customers can buy due to supply issues. Last week, Tesco said it had good availability with no buying limits but was working with producers to protect supplies. Sainsbury's has admitted some stores may be running low on some lines and has sourced eggs from Italy, despite previously committing to only buying eggs from British suppliers. Farmers have claimed that despite the price of a dozen eggs rising by about 45p in the supermarkets since March, they've only received between 5p to 10p of that increase and are not being paid a fair price. Therese Coffey, the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, has previously said she is not concerned about the overall supply of eggs in the UK..
