'In relative terms, a chicken today is cheaper to buy than it was 20 years ago. How can it be right that a whole chicken costs less than a pint of beer?,' Ranjit Boparan, known as the 'Chicken King' has said

"Food is too cheap," Ranjit Boparan, who is known as the "Chicken King" and owns the 2 Sisters Group, was quoted as saying by The Times newspaper.

The company highlighted that the business's 600 farms and 16 factories have witnessed energy costs more than 450% higher than this time last year. Meanwhile, the shortage of HGV drivers has also resulted in wage inflation as logistics firms seek to poach talent with higher wages.
