Warning issued to anyone buying rice from the supermarket

27 April 2026

It's a staple product for much of the world's population, but rice producers are said to be concerned about supplies.

For so many people, rice is a dietary staple eaten multiple times a week. Whether that's paired with curry, a protein source like prawns or chicken or packed into sushi, it's versatile and delicious so it's no wonder it's so popular.

However, if you're someone who often buys rice during the weekly shop, you may soon find it's more expensive. Rice producers have warned that UK brands could face supply constraints and rising prices over the coming months if the Iran war continues. Despite the ongoing ceasefire, the conflict isn't over yet, and it's still having an impact on food production.
