The maker of Nescafé coffee and KitKat chocolate bars increased prices by 8.2% in 2022, but said this was not enough to offset a rise in its own costs, which had dented its profits.
Unilever, Coca-Cola, Heineken, Colgate-Palmolive and Procter & Gamble, which makes Pampers diapers and Pantene shampoo, have all flagged further increases in the prices of their goods this year, as they grapple with elevated commodity, energy and labor costs.
