Bremerhaven. (bm) Yamazaki Baking Co. Limited, Japan’s largest manufacturer of bread, sweet buns and more, will take over the packaged bread business from Kobeya Baking Co. Limited, which has its sales area mainly in the Kanto and Kansai regions. This continues the structural change in the Japanese market. For a long time, the country has been observing a decline in population. A new factor is the significant rise in raw material and production costs caused by the current global crises.
