Korean retailers are increasingly turning to imported eggs from Thailand as domestic egg production declines and the country grapples with "eggflation" — a pronounced surge in egg prices.
Emart, a hypermarket chain under the retail giant Shinsegae, is preparing to sell Thailand-origin eggs starting from mid-June, according to industry sources on Wednesday. The retailer is likely to source them from a shipment the government plans to import later this month to stabilize egg
prices.
