Lawson, Inc. announced on Monday that it will reduce the prices of 20 items in its signature Temaki Onigiri (hand-wrapped rice balls) lineup by ¥10 to ¥11, beginning September 29. This price reduction applies to regional-exclusive products as well. The decrease in prices is due to a reduction in the cost of domestically produced rice, according to the company.
No changes will be made to the product specifications, such as the quantity or quality of the fillings. For instance, the price of a tuna mayo rice ball will drop from ¥181 to ¥171, while the price of a grilled salmon rice ball will decrease from ¥221 to ¥211.
In addition to Lawson, Seven-Eleven Japan Co. also plans to lower the prices of two hand-wrapped rice ball flavors—salmon and spicy pollock roe—by approximately ¥19, starting September 8. The price reduction is attributed to lower raw material procurement costs.
