The price of flour in Israel is set to increase by 10% to 15% within the coming days, depending on the type of flour. Some mills will begin implementing the new pricing as early as Sunday, November 1, 2026. This increase in the price of a staple ingredient is expected to lead to higher prices for all types of baked goods, including bread and pastries.
A report by the Hebrew website "Ynet" attributed the primary reason for the flour price hike to the escalation of the Russia-Ukraine war. Russia is a major supplier of flour to Israel, but Ukrainian attacks on Russian ports and ships in the Black Sea have disrupted the supply chain.
Bar-Raf Mill, one of Israel's largest flour suppliers, which provides flour to Osem company and the Bonjour chain, has informed its customers of an 11% price increase.
