00:00 More than a month before Christmas, bread prices in some bakeries have gone up.

00:06 According to the Association of Filipino Panaderia,

00:09 the prices of ingredients in making bread are continuously increasing.

00:14 Even the Filipino PandeSal and Pinoy Tasty are trying to raise the prices.

00:19 Clayzel Pardilla has more.

00:23 No matter where he goes, his father always brings his senior citizen card to get a discount.

00:30 And to save money, he uses it when he buys bread for the last time.

00:36 The price is really important.

00:39 Yes, the discount.

00:41 If you're counting like that, "Oh, it's big, I can eat this."

00:44 It's like you're paying a small amount.

00:47 More than a month before Christmas, bread prices in some bakeries, like this store in Manila, have gone up.

00:55 Because our ingredients are high, eggs, sugar, flour.

01:01 Back then, we sold 18.

01:03 We raised 2 pesos there.

01:05 Bibingka, empanada, our toasted siopao, and pandesal, 50 centavos for each piece.

01:14 According to the Association of Filipino Bakers,

01:17 there are still some bakeries that are still able to raise the prices of ingredients

01:23 and ingredients used in making bread, like eggs, margarine, potatoes, and LPG.

01:30 But because of the high operating cost in the business,

01:33 it's possible to buy some types of bread that are sold every Christmas.

01:39 This is what's making it difficult for us now, that this can be the reason for the price of their bread to go up.

01:50 The increase in water, electricity, rental cost, and the repair of our equipment,

01:57 should be maintained properly so that we don't have problems, especially during Christmas.

02:05 According to the group, the price of cake can go up to 30 to 50 pesos.

02:11 2 pesos for empanada, while 50 centavos for potato pandesal.

02:17 That's why Rafi said that it's a tradition to prepare cake whenever there's an occasion.

02:23 It's still traditional, but it's not that big. It's just right for the family.

02:27 Sometimes, it's just enough for us.

02:30 It's not like that every day.

02:34 The price of Filipino pandesal and Filipino tasty is still low.

02:40 But some manufacturers are also asking the Department of Trade and Industry to increase the price of the products.

02:49 It's just five pesos.

02:51 But the other expenses like fuel, sugar, although it's a bit low now,

02:59 but it's still high from the previous months and previous years.

03:04 That's the factor that we're trying to do with a little price adjustment.

03:11 DTI said that they're just studying the high prices.

03:17 The companies are also discussing to make sure that the products can still be bought.
