Although the egg shortage was due to end yesterday, following the import of millions of eggs, a shortage of food chains was still evident. However, food chains are reporting that the shortage has been balanced and is expected to end soon.

According to a source in the industry, "Some ships and flights arrive and arrive during the week, so the networks that have not yet renewed inventory will do so today and tomorrow."
The coop council said "egg marketers have ordered extra quantities of eggs, which will be available during the week."
Rami Levy, owner of Rami Levy Sycamore Marketing, told Israel Today: "The egg shortage is starting to balance. As for the shortage, these are eggs that have not been able to reach. There will be no shortage today at noon. "

The Shufersal network said the situation was improving because containers had come in. There are point blanks in some of the branches.
The Quik company told Israel Today yesterday that a lack of critical products such as eggs and chicken products was felt before the holiday, naturally due to the significant increase in consumption and the fact that hundreds of thousands of Israelis who usually spend their holiday abroad are staying in Israel.
However, not everyone agrees with the optimistic assumption that the shortage is behind us. A source in the industry told Israel Today: "The import of 32 million eggs is only effective by the end of April. There will be a shortage of eggs and it will continue not only during Passover but also after."
