The Federated Hospitality Association of South Africa's Cape region says member establishments have adopted measures to shield guests from the egg shortage caused by avian flu. Around three million birds have been affected, and egg prices in the Western Cape have risen substantially.
Hotels and restaurants say they will avoid raising prices on egg-based dishes during the holiday season.
The shortage is still affecting food service pricing and demand for eggs, but the hospitality sector's measures suggest limited additional demand pressure. Impact on grain and feed markets remains small.
